    Why the clickbait? Just put why it’s getting worse in the title

      Some Reddit communities had rules that you couldn’t change the news title I think. A practice that has unfortunately passed on. Perhaps some vigilant lemmy moderators can make an anti-clickbait policy, where any prompts or questions must be summarized in the title.

        I get the argument cuz you don’t want people editorializing titles absurdly, but maybe like a bracket system or something.

          One difference is that lemmy post titles can be edited by the poster. Maybe mods can too? Perhaps somebody needs to make a “anti-clickbait suggested title” bot, to help combat clickbait.

      The funny thing is that you didn’t say why either.
