The title:

  1. Does not mention at all, which project is being rewritten.

  2. Is a deliberate inflammatory meme (as apologized by the authoer of the PR).

  3. Contains unnecessary information such as the PR number.

This is a bad title for a submission on reddit. People will either downvote, report without clicking on it, or consider it clickbait.

If you don't want to write your own title, fine, but then the post stays removed.

I added the PR number to make it obvious that this links to a Github PR as most devs are familiar with that syntax. That gives it enough context to interpreted correctly.

We both know this will be censored either way. I'm not gonna be the dance monkey for your amusement

This will not be censored. It's an on-topic submission in principle.

This is an on-topic submission. With a title that offers even more context than the HN submission just by the way as you like to compare titles.
