This may sound stupid.

Genuine question, But why do people always put the context or specifications in the description/title? Is it the viewer watching the videos fault for not reading the description and not knowing what’s going on? I tend to overlook descriptions because I always assume they’re just tags or something short.

In my experience it’s because when additional context isn’t provided, the entire comment section is flooded with people frustrated by not having the whole story. It seems like a real damned if you do damned if you don’t situation.

The words you put in the caption help categorize your videos so TikTok knows where to push them out to. Plus I’ve noticed that a lot of viewers read my captions because they reference them in comments.
