And you would be correct, because why would anyone red past a title so full of BS?
Google didn’t perfect the web, anything but. If it’s a hyperbolic title, we’ll then it fails to get me to click because it’s not interesting: I already know Google didn’t perfect the web, so I doubt the author has anything I’d care to read.
Now, if it said “How Google Fucked the Web”, I may click.
Thing is, I knew from the first year of Google how they were going to fuck the web, simply by being so much better at search, everyone would default to them, which is a bad thing.
I didn’t realise it, I just pasted the link and let Kbin figure out the data. I guess it read from an internal working title instead of the actual title (which isn’t much better, it’s “The Perfect Webpage”)
I do feel like this is why I don’t really hang around the fediverse that much; it’s like the opposite end of the spectrum of right-wingers who go nuts when “communism” or “socialism” is mentioned, just that it’s any mention of “capitalism”. Kneejerk reactions either way.
Good article, but expect down votes from people who did not read the title. If you feel like changing it, I think Lemmy lets you.
I think you mean read “past” the title.

How Google got banned in China
yeah, it’s already happening. shame as it’s such a well written (and designed) article.
Yes, I really do love the animations, really shows the transformation so well.
With a stupid title.
So I’ll never know how good it is. Not worth my click.
