This Time magazine article is a good one, but that “what you think you know is wrong” headline is more of the same obnoxious clickbait that the article itself critiques, so here’s a bit of what I found useful.

Scrolling is more acceptable behavior than it used to be. We’re all much more used to scrolling now, especially when using mobile devices. Just because we click a link doesn’t mean we read or share what’s on the other end of the link; we still engage meaningfully with news, while we click on and ignore fluff. (So, marketers who trick us into clicking are not getting the best visitors — the best visitors are repeat customers.)

I have been burned so many times by clicking on a link to Upworthy, BuzzFeed, or the Huffington Post that I have blocked links to those sites from my Facebook feed. (I don’t block the people who post the links, but I do block all links to those destinations.)
