I haven’t spent long on Lemmy, but I see a lot of posts with their title literally being “Title”. Is it meant to be a joke? Is it because the title would otherwise be a quote ripped from the image/post itself, and the posters don’t want their fellow Lemmites to get bored from reading the same bit of text twice? Reason why I ask is because I recently posted something where I took the title from the body of text in the post, and I’m wondering if people find it less annoying to read a single placeholder word before clicking into the main post than to end up rereading a bit of the body later.
Could you link an example or two?
Just got two specific ones in my reply to @[email protected]. You can probably find a few more by going into search, filtering it to post only, and typing in ‘title’ as the search text. Usually I don’t click into them, so I can’t recall any specific ones that stuck out at me from my history, but I remember seeing some in my feed time to time, enough to make me wonder why it’s relatively common.
