I understand that sometimes the HN titles get edited to be less descriptive and more generic in order to match the actual article title.

What’s the logic with changing the title here from the actual article title it was originally submitted with “AV1 — Now Powering 30% of Netflix Streaming” to the generic and not at all representative title it currently has “AV1: a modern open codec”? That is neither the article title nor representative of the article content.

For me that’s a FU moment that reminds me ‘TF am I doing here?’ I genuinely see this resource as a censoring plus advertising (both for YC, obviously) platform, where there are generic things, but also things someone doesn’t want you to read or know. The titles are constantly being changed to gibberish like right here, the adequate comments or posts are being dead, yet the absolutely irrelevant or offensive things, can stay not touched. Etc.
