Trash article. Its 30% less downloads, not less users. Why even post this?

    A lot of Lemmy communities need rules against misleading/editorialised headlines already, it's as bad or worse than Reddit right now.

    This is why the downvote system is such a failure of an idea.

    If people were as smart as they think they are, they’d just downvote stuff like this and it would go away. People post this junk because they are whores for upvotes

    it's easier to create multiple accounts on fediverse than on mainstream social media websites. Then just upvote your own posts with the bots.

    This is going to be controversial but “review wether this title is misleading for the provided article” might be a job an automated ai agent could do well with high accuracy. If not the post gets a small disclaimer which mods can remove if they please.

    Of course that is if the article website is actually readable for it.

    Good. When all they have left is bots and advertisers figure out that’s all their clicks are and then decide to abandon the platform entirely, then X will be done.

    Did my part. Bye bye account!

    The Nazis, Pedos and other whackjobs will stay tho. They'd be so convinced that the amplification of right wing chatter on there, because everyone else has left, means they are now everyone and "won".
