Clickbait is different from intriguing. If you don't know how to articulate the difference, that is a consistent pattern with also being unqualified to judge writing quality.
This title, at least not with the cover image included, did not artificially and pointlessly withhold information. The title doesn't mention chromeos or any other linux-based systems, but the picture includes a chromebook, and from that I knew the article was going to be about chromeos, and the title was a joke about chromeos being arguably both a linux system and not a linux system.
If you didn't, assuming you don't happen to be blind and assuming the images alt tag doesn't happen to be specific enough, the deficiency is in you not the article.
Myself, I would not be so eager to advertize that I don't get simple things like this.
