Well sort of but not really at all, since the one from yesterday changed the title, making it much softer than the actual title of the article. This one keeps the title.
Yesterday's one should have been flagged, as per:
"please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize."
- immibis 2y agoHN moderators can change titles, unlike Reddit. They should have just fixed the title if the title was wrong.
- sourcepluck 2y agoYes, that would have been a good course of action if it was done quick enough. At this stage I'm unsure what would be the best course of action in this case, seeing how the original changed-title posting has gotten much less interest and comments that this one.
- ChrisArchitect 2y agoTitle doesn't matter. The discussion is over there. No need to split it up.
- sourcepluck 2y agoWell it matters in the guidelines for posting. And it also seems to have mattered in terms of engagement in this case, as the repost with the original [much stronger, much less ambiuous] title has garnered more interest.
