you sound like you're not even washing coconuts
those aren't actually gifs.
they're frequently webms.
various people don't care or don't know the difference between media formats though, so they'll just call anything remotely gif-like a gif.
nearly all talks are either in English or have English translations. not sure if they're available on YouTube but you should be able to find everything on https://media.ccc.de

your app seems to be doing weird things then.
the original comment is by user @soundingcock@lemm.ee
, who spams links to gore in comments.
true, my comment was primarily from the perspective of the recipient of tracking links
for our admin team, we're using a bot to message a matrix room when content is reported and reacting to the message when it's been handled.
this could be done pretty much the same way on mod level, though this is certainly not easily accessible to everyone due to the hosting involved.
and all of this is only relevant if you even receive reports about content in the first place. if you moderate a community on another instance, tough luck unfortunately, as they currently do not federate.
edit: typos
I haven't checked how reddit does this but just from the example it seems like there is no anti tracking from the use of urlcheck that you're describing.
reddit appears to generate tracking link with a specific numeric identifier in their database, so instead of attaching a bunch of removable url parameters they instead do a lookup in their database and then redirect to the original destination.
this also means your app checking the redirect will need to fetch the url to determine the destination, which means their tracking still works just fine.
edit: a word
I'm pretty sure this only goes to Apple, not to the actual developer.
I believe I've even seen devs specifically ask for copies of the reports from the crash reporter, as they wouldn't receive them otherwise.
this doesn't change the rest of your statement though, just afaik the recipient is different.
do people commonly have three feet where you live?
that's not entirely accurate.
the main problem for non-kbin users, as @ono@lemmy.ca is using lemmy, is that kbin moderation actions, such as a moderator or admin removing spam will not federate to lemmy, as this is not implemented yet.
for a lemmy user, it appears that kbin doesn't have any moderation at all, while spam is being removed for kbin(.social) users at least.
for this reason, several lemmy instances have already either defederated from kbin or removed kbin communities from their instance.
