MODERATORS
Clickbait works, and that's all there is to it. People click on clickbait, so the algorithms promote clickbait, and subsequently the authors need to use clickbait or their content won't be visible. Counter it by finding people with integrity and good content to follow, regardless of whether or not they use clickbait to keep pace with the algorithms.
