Yes. I hate reading something that's going to take 20 minutes and starts with an anecdote about Jimmy noticing something funny on a hike 20 years ago and you've got to read for 10 min to understand what it's about.
If you're reading an established author that you know to be interesting, maybe. For a random internet article, I want to know what it's about. I don't know why more people don't include abstracts or summaries at the start
