And the new one isn't? At least the original was from the article, instead of editorialized by the poster/moderator.

- Touche 11y ago> And the new one isn't? No, the new one isn't motivated to get you to click the link, and therefore is not "clickbait". It is editorialized, but that's a good thing.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoHow can text be motivated? It's still clickbait because it makes an unjustified, subjective judgement.
- dang 11y agoNo, it's the doc title, which makes it a legit original—indeed, it's what the HN bookmarklet selects by default. So adidash didn't editorialize anything. Also, no moderator touched this post.
