Find a better and more accessible solution than clickbait.

Please, do it.

"Privacy concerns found in audit of popular dev tools" (or something along those lines) would work without feeling sensationalized.

		Yes this one time. I’m speaking generally in response to the general plea.

"better", "more accessible"? What the hell are you talking about? Clickbait doesn't make anything better or more accessible.

Instead, it makes it impossible to pre-select for interesting information. Instead of telling you what something is about, it tells you how you should feel about it. That's not improving accessibility.

I meant from the author’s perspective. Clickbait is too easy, which is probably why it’s so popular.

		Oh completely. But my perspective is that we all should individually punish clickbait by not clicking. More broadly, we should strive to keep HN full of quality tech content rather than clickbait.
