You’d see an article say (major LN spoiler, click at your own risk)

and someone like me who hasn’t even read the LN or manga yet be like: 👁👄👁
I agree with you, this shit is so annoying. Same thing when some mfs write stuff on mal and decide to put the spoiler as the title. Like come on, grow up ffs even a 13 yo wouldn’t do that it’s not even funny…

yeah, this shit just pisses me off. I got this anime spoiled for me cos someone posted some scenes the day the episode came out. I hadn't even had time to watch it yet.

I really don't like articles. They leech off the popularity of some shows just to make a quick buck.
I open my search engine today and what's the first thing I see on the front page? An article with a blatant spoiler in its title. In all honesty, I don't care about the spoiler itself that much. In fact, I don't even know if it's even that big of a spoiler or not, since I haven't even seen this part yet. But is still pisses me off thinking that somebody out there might have had their experience slightly ruined by seeing it.
The article in question:

Thoughts?

I agree completely with the articles leech off popularity part of that. However, I'm not so sure that something that's been aired for like 8 months or so (in sub and dub) would be wrong to say. The only reason it's wrong for the articles to do that with those "spoilers" is because you can't control If you'll see it or not if you've just started watching.

I still think it’s the article’s responsibility to not include spoilers in the title of the thing. People find articles naturally. It’s not like they specifically search up for them. Also, 8 months isn’t a very long time. There are series decades of years old that shouldn’t be spoiled.

In all honesty, reading articles is basically like searching for spoilers. DON'T ever do it, it is almost guaranteed to get a spoiler from any one of them, Unless you finished the show.

Articles can be useful but Latin doesn't have them and Latin is the best language ever devised by humans so fuck articles.

Same thing about character deaths shown in search results. Just write their names in Google or YouTube, the first thing i see is their deaths. Idc about spoilers one bit and hate the people who think spoilers are done kind of secret sacred texts but hate this particular thing. This will put me off if u started a show and knowing one of my favourite character will die.
