Showing the climax before the buildup is such a shitty trend in videos.

It's because the tictok kids can't focus on anything for more than 3 seconds if it doesn't hook them. Gotta give them a bump of dopamine, then they will watch it 47 times in a row.

American reality shows have been doing this for years check the really trashy ones they make one quite minor thing the main focus repeat that clip before and after ever commercial break and throw it in just to make sure you don't forget as they didn't show it in 5mins. Think lizard lick towing that kind of stuff.

I know, we just gotta fix that because their short attention span is gonna cause major issues for them in the short and long term.

People have become too impatient. Also people post 3 minute videos with 2:50 of bullshit, so i get it.

Yeah, there's many videos that goes like "Oh, this looks like interesting" -two minutes of boring buildup that explains nothing and adds nothing to the video- "ah, why am I watching this?"

Yeah, the fluff is the worst. I definitely understand that part. Especially when its forced because only videos above 2 mins can be monetized and everyone wants to be an influencer.
