  What’s your take on top 10 style articles?
  
  Are they good? Do people read them? What about SEO stuff?

  I’m not a fan of list articles.

      Most of them are spammy low-effort trash designed to keep you mindlessly on the page to serve adverts.

  Some listicles are fun to read.
  
  Depends on the writer.

  Sometimes I read them. Occasionally I regret it or give up – especially on those sites loaded with ads.

  I find such list articles vapid yet harmless.
  
  I do not loath nor hate them but I rarely engage in reading such works.

  I think they are ok SEO. Some are good reads but many are weak and forgettable.

  Some are okay – I don’t click on them much.
