      “Try this…” where “this” is intentionally vague until you click on the link is standard clickbait tactics…

      Everything. It doesn’t accurately describe the issue (animation stutter when using an HDD or during heavy I/O) and it doesn’t mention the solution (put the cache folder in tmpfs), plus it obviously follows the traditional sensationalist tone used in clickbait.

      The point is to be deliberately vague to bait people into watching it.

        Okay, but when I have the problem that my KDE is stuttering, I’m not searching for “.cache folder on Low-IOPS Drive causes my stuttering issue”, because, yk, I’d have to know the solution for that. I’d probably search for “why does KDE stutter”.
