I don't think the title is editorializing or bashing. Gnome is going to break all extensions, which is literally in the article. And this is rather newsworthy.

  > Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize. Edit: The fact that it can break existing extensions is something important, and a great discussion here. Another title could have been "Gnome 45 extensions are ESM modules" which is factual too, but the policy on HN is to keep the original title.

    One conveys actual information the other would be basically just a release announcement and leave important details to the motivated reader.

    I have no clue what an ESM module is and I can't be the only one. I don't really give a damn, either. The title is fine as it is.
