- Y-bar 4y agoShe's one of the true treasures of the modern internet.
- hobs 4y agoWell she certainly makes clickbait video titles I would never click to reward such shameless HACKS THAT HAVE KILLED 34 PEOPLE (you must click this to see what the hell I am on about.) Maybe I can avoid it if I do this ONE WEIRD TRICK. The internet is so tedious.
- zeofig 4y agoIt's becoming pretty common even for good content. Weird, thanks internet.
- UmbertoNoEco 4y ago> It's becoming pretty common even for good (YOUTUBE) content Fortunately there is still a niche(but not-zero) zone of the good internet which does not resort to this.
- dewey 4y agoIt's annoying that it's that way but I try not to blame the creators for that. If you want to play the game you have to do it that way. This is also true for the clickbaity thumbnails with the creators face and some shocked face expressions where people confirmed that they perform way better than "professional" and clean looking ones.
- Semiapies 4y agoThat sounds like a problem with your heuristic, there. ETA: I once sarcastically said we need a technology so that links here are not described by anything that looks like a title due to all the people who get ridiculously outraged by any attempt to attract their attention. Maybe I was on to something. Too many of you don't read or watch past titles.
- tomjen3 4y agoThat may be the case, but I still hope HN bans her until we can get titles that accurately reflect the content. Otherwise this community will very quickly disappear.
- Semiapies 4y agoYes, we have right-wing channers infesting the place, we have a constantly declining level of tech competence in the comments, we have people who never actually read past a title, but it's Ann Reardon's YouTube titles that will destroy this community.
