YouTube copied a lot of features from pornhub like the heatmap of the most watched parts of a video.

I’ve seen porn videos with a YT-style thumbnail (annoying person making a dumb face in front of whatever is actually interesting), but so far they are very rare.

I upvoted it because I read the article and found it to be quite interesting. As other commenters have mentioned, you might find YouTube indistinguishable because of how many features have been inspired by porn sites (or, at the very least, were popularized on those adult content sites first).
