Aside from clickbait headlines subconsciously making opening links even more sus than it already is, they all just want you to go to the actual article so they can track at the very least their pagevisits for personal validation, leaving you either with misunderstandable headlines or "...and this is what happened next..."-cliffhangers.
Anyway, crossposting an article on many mediums - instead of making it on one external site and posting the link to other mediums - usually solves the problem. I'll be more likely to read the entirety of anything òn the website I'm at than I am to follow external links to the unknown website people "thought was safe enough". 😅
