HN automatically does that.
- jajko 2y agoWhat would be the reason? In most titles / statements I can come up with it changes the meaning, and saving 4 chars ain't good enough reason, better would be a/an/the.
- vbezhenar 2y agoApparently those kinds of titles are considered "clickbaity". I agree that this particular edit makes things confusing.
- fuzzfactor 2y agoI think there was a rapidly rising tide of auto-generated blogspam "How-To" articles at one point, that can be filtered in a fairly specifc way.
- remoquete 2y agoYou can re-edit it to preserve the How though.
- HPsquared 2y agoI wonder what the statistics look like on these auto adjustments.
