I really hope I'm not the only person who mentally groans whenever I see yet another "X considered Y" clickbait title. It's the tech equivalent of "this one weird trick" or "X Happened And You Won't Believe What Happened Next".




You forgot "What every X should know about Y" ;-)


Worthless memetic content considered harmful. Hope that helps... :)


What's clickbaitish about the title? If the article is aligned with title, then the title is fine.


clickbait (google search): "(on the Internet) content, especially that of a sensational or provocative nature, whose main purpose is to attract attention and draw visitors to a particular web page."

I think this safely fits under the sensational/provocative attention-grabbing umbrella.
