An online video (esp. a repeating "short") that features an admonition to "watch to the end!" or "wait for it!" and then there's nothing to see. A form of clickbait.

Living your life in a way that seems engineered for maximum online engagement, even if it's shallow or inauthentic. Every moment is a potential viral post.
She's living that click-bait life, always posting 'emotional' vlogs about minor inconveniences. Exhausting.

Religion baiting is a sub genre of fear baiting. It is type of content that usually starts with “scroll if you hate Jesus”. Which uses Religion as a way to stop you. And it uses fear of going to hell as a way to make you watch the video. The content creator then proceeds to tell you to comment, like, and subscribe if you love Jesus. It makes kids interact with their video pushing it to more people.
Some of the worst people on earth: “I have an idea! I should use Religion baiting to get more subscribers on my shitty Roblox YouTube Shorts account.”
