I really irks me when people change the titles of the articles they link to to try to fit their narrative. Because sadly people dont really click through to the article. Just share the real title and give your commentary on the comments.

The original title only makes sense to people seeing it listed on Uber’s website who are familiar with Uber’s “Women Preferences”. That exact title without modification doesn’t provide enough context for a random post on Lemmy, IMO.
I do agree that it’s annoying when posts change the title in a way that didn’t accurately reflect the linked article, but I don’t think that’s necessarily the case here.
