Kinda like The Economist in that regard :)

“click bait” is very slowly taking on a more general meaning as any title or link that doesn't precisely and concisely describe the article, including where humour is being applied (like here).

It is literally like the word literally often being used to mean figuratively these days, as in this example…

Click bait tries to induce a reflexive response, typically by trying to induce fear.

E.g. something like "Safety Feature Quietly Being Removed from Linux Kernel"

I don't know that it was intentional, but I clicked the link thinking it translated to something like "Someone highly involved in Linux kernel development is about to step down". Maybe not click bait in the typical sense, but I was baited into clicking it. You get a pass for cheeky titles though when the article is actually interesting and well written like this one.
