I have an interesting dilemma.
On one hand, I want to commend you for not using the author's clickbait title.
On the other hand, I don't want to give the author more exposure (because of the clickbait title) by increasing this post's comment score.
In the end, the first hand won. Thanks! :)
- d0vs 11y agoHN should just ban medium.com links.
- JacobAldridge 11y agoOP here, Thanks for noticing the linkbait work-around. I thought it was a useful piece, but similarly didn't want to reward the original title.
- raldi 11y agoWell, you get two upvotes from me.
- tgb 11y agoAnd here I was able at the article for spoiling the fun of it's 'guess the search terms' game in the damn title. Nope, it wasn't the author I had to be disappointed with, it was HN's blind adherence to keeping the original title AND removing click bait. A much better title would have been the original or something like "what to include in Twitter search terms".
