- ColinWright 6y agoIn the past I've edited titles, carefully crafting them to give a better indication of the content, only to have people complain that the title has been changed, and subsequently to have the mods change it back. So I've given up even trying to put any thought into the title ... if the article seems like it would, should, or could be interesting to the HN community, I post it. I've been trained not to put any work into it.
- leeoniya 6y agosame. kind of absurd that when you try to un-editorialize some clickbaity bs into a tldr; it gets mod-reverted to the original vague crap. this modding style has definitely discouraged me from submitting articles here with good content but unfortunate headlines.
