There was a story here yesterday whose title was so clickbaity I was tempted to flag:<p>"The Simplest Social Media Algorithm Hack to Transform Your Entire Life" [1]<p>The advice was "click on many influencers you like everyday and let the personalized suggestions do the rest", with the customary writing style of SEO/webmarketing enthusiasts, as one would expect from the title. This NYT article is the corollary: "don't click on what you don't like".<p>I am wondering if there is any difference between two stories in the value they bring. And whether they do bring any value.<p>[1] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28098220" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28098220</a>
