    Wish they would just allow me to to choose “Don’t show clickbait.”

      showing you clickbait is the whole point of this app

      I doubt you want an option that does even less than the usual choices. Because there is no way that option would do anything at all.

        Or hell, use generative AI to give the article a title that informs me of the content of the article rather than what would make me most likely to click on it.

        Or, if everyone said don’t show clickbait, eventually sites would catch on that they are losing money for using clickbait titles.

          i used to use a news app called artifact that would AI generate better article titles but they’ve shut down :(

            Hmm. Sounds like Android Studio is calling my name again then…

          Yeah, actual useful titles would be amazing in this day and age.
