I agree, it is annoying.

I, too, find it irritating and I really don’t understand why this format was chosen.

I don’t think it’s the right place but I truly hate with passion this kind of “mini article”, we can’t click on them when on the home page of the blog and it’s a pain in the ass to navigate. I want to open a new tab and see the video from there then look at the comments. I both can’t open a new tab nor see the…
