Hi @cryptosolitaire,

Thanks for the upvote, comment, and for sharing your thoughts.

You have a point there as well, there is always more to a story than the headline, even in the case of clickbait headlines.

I guess the question here is whether or not Facebook's algorithm can really detect the difference between a clickbait article or just a great article with a clever headline that the algorithm might deem as clickbait.

If there is a policitcal or any other agenda behind the News Feed algorithm changes, we might never find out what those ulterior motives are for sure.

Do you think Steemit will suffer if they also implemented a clickbait eradicating algorithm?
