Heard this Tuesday: a creator running 50+ videos treats the pinned comment as a second thumbnail. Their repeatable system:
—
Within 10 minutes of publishing, pin a comment that adds a fact you left out of the video.
—
Reply to your own pin with the timestamp where it gets good — pushes mid-video retention.
—
Never pin 'thanks for watching'. Pin something that makes them scroll back up.
—
After 48h, swap the pin to the most-liked viewer comment to keep the section alive.
Confidence: medium. For a channel like yours, the comment box is free retention real estate most people waste.
