No secret here: I don't click on a link by someone who doesn't care to post where it leads to.

Really? You don't know youtube or how to copy a link without clicking on it? Wow!
If you're 5 you probably shouldn't be using the internet but i can ELI5 you on how to, although i don't think the topic will interest you.

In their defense, most of the time when someone just posts a YouTube link on social media it's a complete waste of time. Video is very slow to get to the point, that's why we're reading!

Clicking on a link without knowing the website it leads to?

Completely different arguments. This is moving the goalposts
