A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I hate headlines. They’re written on purpose to piss me off and sometimes they work. Maybe I should stop reading headlines and just read the articles instead. Probably healthier than the other way around.
How would you identify and decide which articles to read?
I’d pick a reasonable source, then I’d go with a mix of pure chance and good old fashioned skimming.
By stopping reading headlines and just read the articles instead.
Just read every article?
Just read the articles instead
Which ones?
The articles.

Presumably all of them from specific sources. I'm hoping this person's plan isn't to indiscriminately read every article on the entire internet, although that would be quite a feat lol.

Which ones?
(I can see your take. I'm not making fun of you, but) I can imagine this being a reason why Twitter got rid of titles for articles in tweets.
