Would be nice with a TLDR on all links as many are not deserving of a click.

It obviously doesn't tell the full story, but it isn't bad for a tl;dnr. My name is Maxim and I'm an independent game developer. With millions of downloads it is definitely my most successful game so far, and that's thanks to a very active fan base which I'm very grateful to have. It's really cool to see people play the game in front of your eyes. You evaluate behavior - are they passionate gamers? Or rather cold business people.

- Daho0n 6y agoTotally misses the point: > as many are not deserving of a click How do you do "due diligence" on a HN link without clicking on it? Do you use Google to look at the story and then click the link if it turns out not to be clickbait or other crap that you believe doesn't deserve a click?
