I mean, "10% of the top million sites are dead" is a surprising, and concrete, piece of information. Whereas "Fun with DuckDB, curl, and the Majestic Million" contains virtually no information about what the article is about- I don't know what DuckDB is but databases aren't that exciting, curl is a well understood tool, and as for the third piece, a million what? Bats? I don't have time to read all the way through every article to figure out which ones are interesting. Anyways, I think you already figured this stuff out but- yeah your second title is a lot better.
