    I hate headlines. They’re written on purpose to piss me off and sometimes they work. Maybe I should stop reading headlines and just read the articles instead. Probably healthier than the other way around.

      How would you identify and decide which articles to read?

        I’d pick a reasonable source, then I’d go with a mix of pure chance and good old fashioned skimming.

                  all of them?

                    Presumably all of them from specific sources. I’m hoping this person’s plan isn’t to indiscriminately read every article on the entire internet, although that would be quite a feat lol.

      (I can see your take. I’m not making fun of you, but) I can imagine this being a reason why Twitter got rid of titles for articles in tweets.
