- codemac 14y agoCan they at least post what the title was? This is just getting absurd.
- shill 14y agoA few of the title changes lately have been unhelpful. It would be nice to see the original title in small print somewhere.
- lawnchair_larry 14y agoYeah, an overwhelming majority have expressed frustration at this title changing, but they insist on doing it routinely. I understand fixing editorialized titles, but they are not doing that. In most cases, they change it to a far more useless title. Often the article title will have some implied context, and that is completely lost when it is posted to a general aggregation site like HN. This is just one of many cases where changing the title makes no sense at all.
- aw3c2 14y agoMaybe mods could post the original title and their change as comment for people to vote on as feedback. That would also mean we would finally know who the mods are...
