Click-bait is something that someone uses a thing that usually to get someone attention. After they clicked it's not what they wanted. Common on Youtube and ROBLOX. Click-bait titles most likely have a name like this: ''I ALMOST DIED'' or ''PRANKING IN THE HOOD (GONE WRONG)''. Those are things that never happen in the video. No one almost dies and no one pranks in the hood (usually actors). The other way people click-bait is when something happened in the video they make it look more dramatic on the thumbnail and the title. People also like to add sexual things to the thumbnail or title to grab peoples attention. For example: ''THE MOST HOTTEST GAME EVER'' It turns out to be some first-person shooter game. The other way people click-bait is they say a title but they don't finish it so you can get curious to click on the video. For example: ''WE NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING'' or ''WHO DID THIS TO ME?!''.
Click-bait sucks.

When someone says something intriguing about a show/movie/book that makes you want to search it up and spoil it for yourself.
Person 1: “damn I really like this character”
Person 2: “ooo good luck with that, something really wild happens to them in the next season!”
Person 1: *searched it up because person 2 was spoiler baiting them*
