The original title is "Why I have to give Fortnite my passport to use Bluesky". HN automatically removed "Why" from the title.

>>malshe+e
this article is a good example of why "why" should be removed

>>throwa+22
Can you explain?

>>happyt+E3
"Why" is redundant. If the article is stating premise "X" and it's on the front page (assuming it's not newsworthy enough that "X" is novel and worth discussion), it's obviously going to explain "Why X" and "X" is sufficient.

>>mmastr+e7
"Why" only adds clarity. What is the advantage of removing it?

>>anamex+c8
People on HN hold very odd opinions near and dear to their hearts. Minor variances in a article title being one of them.

>>0x1ch+Y8
They internalize title heuristics because of who they perceive is the author of the heuristics.

>>sitkac+Le
I honestly have no idea what you're trying to say. HN users mimic other HN posters they find credible?

"You can tell the kind of person by how they write"

You can tell the kind of person by what they write.
