By all means post “RACE RESULTS!” With the results in the comments.
I have just got home to watch the results. Checked ALL while having a coffee before settling down for the race. FECK! Some numpty posted Verstapen wins.
Race ruined for me. I’ll bet that I am not the only one.
PLEASE concider us unfortunate ones who can not watch live.
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 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.
the F1 subreddit didn’t have spoilers in post titles, it really isn’t hard.
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!
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.
posts “no spoilers” in title
says the race winner in the post body
Hmmmmm
The post is pretty clearly about spoilers in thr TITLE of posts.
If someone clicks on a post titled “congrats to the winner of the Hungarian GP” and gets spoiled, it is their fault.
If someone is browsing their communities local and sees a race spoiler in the post title, that blows, and there should be rules against it.
Sure I see your point. I just think a post specifically about avoiding spoilers should not contain spoilers in the post, especially one that isn’t super relevant to the discussion. OP could have said “I went on this post and got the race winner spoiled” instead of saying it was Max
PLEASE concider us unfortunate ones who can not watch live.
Please considering not visiting social media if you haven’t seen the race, you can’t make the world spin around you.
“you can’t make the world spin around you”
That’s not what I am asking for. However, giving a little concideration for the many people unable to watch live doesn’t take much effort.
Being located in Western Canada I just won’t wake up at 6am everyday on the weekend to watch sessions. I often don’t watch the sessions until Saturday and Sunday evenings and I rarely ever have things spoiled for me. I have Formula 1 instances blocked on my main Lemmy account and a specific account only subbed to F1 stuff so it’s really easy to manage with Lemmy. All my browsers have stupid news feeds turned off and I have the advantage of not using other social media. Onus is definitely on the person trying to avoid spoilers.
I 100% agree. The times where I need to watch a race late I need to avoid all social media.
At the very least, don’t post the names of the winners in the post title
I mean I often watch the race late. So I just avoid social media. Lemmy is already lacking interaction. I don’t think we should stifle it further…
I live on the west coast of the US. The race started at 6am local time. Given I’m usually not home until midnight on a Saturday night, there’s no way I’m watching it live. There are millions of us in the same boat.
What were you expecting to see here if not “spoilers” of the race posted as it went on. Whether highlights or winner, if you don’t want to know you shouldn’t get on.
That said, I would like to see more lively community discussion (before, during, and after the race) and saying “just don’t come here” isn’t very welcoming either.
