Uhm, if there is a place to get spoiled… it is in a F1 community post race. This one’s on you mate.
It takes zero effort to make the post title "2023 Hungary Grand Prix Results Discussion" not "Max Verstappen wins the 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix".
It’s also far easier for someone who doesn’t want to be spoiled to simply avoid places where spoilers are likely, than moderate thousands of other people to follow such a rule.
It also takes zero effort to avoid this community until you've seen the race
I saw the spoiler post title at the top of the front page of my instance. So I’ll have to unsubscribe or even filter the community. Sure. But that’s pretty annoying when we could easily just not post race results in post titles. I don’t understand why y’all get so bitter about a reasonable ask.
I wouldn't know, I'm not bitter about anything. I'm just suggesting an easy way to fix the problem.
Your solution is not one though at all.
I popped into Lemmy for a few minutes while using the facilities this morning. An F1 spoiler was the second post in my feed. How about we not post spoilers in the title. It’s really not a big ask.
the F1 subreddit didn't have spoilers in post titles, it really isn't hard.

Damn lol, when I still looked at it they always had ambiguous titles, but then again I don't know how moderated the sub is anymore.
I used the subreddit for more than 5 years, and it always has been the same. Spoiler rules apply to other racing series, not to F1 itself.
No it has the spoilers in the sidebar. You know, that thing you see next to every post. Besides that, the F1 subreddit posts always a graphic with the race winner, the same graphic you see in the... sidebar!
Ah, I've only ever looked at it through bacon reader, which doesn't really show the sidebar.
I typically saw the posts titled things like "congrats to the winner of the Hungarian GP" so I assumed they had a rule against it.
