This was a fun experiment. Me personally don't like thumbnails with circles and stuff, it's as if the one sharing it thinks I'm to dumb to know what there is to focus on. Even worse are those video's on social media "you will never believe whats in this garden" *Shows a puppy with a circle hahaha. Never click on them. Anyways, great experiment and interesting to see the human behaviour in this way.
Yeah I know eh it’s tricky because you want to create a thumbnail that looks good but also gets people’s attention.
