The article is honestly really interesting for the details it gives. It's easy enough to dismiss anything as clickbait, but sometimes it just sounds like that old tired "Trump Derangement Syndrome" BS.
Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's clickbait, but personally I'm not that interested in a retelling of how he started gutting twitter shortly after he bought it last year. Maybe it's not this article per se, just the straw of musk spam that broke the camels back.
Your words, my emphasis.
Thanks for emphasising I never called the article clickbait, just outrage-bait, circlejerk and low effort. And I do still think posting it here is just that.
Outrage-bait is clickbait. More specifically, it's a subset of clickbait.

My bad. I thought clickbait just referred to headlines that don't deliver. Today I learned.
