    I had a second reddit acct that wasn’t subbed to f1 and had it blocked on all to avoid spoilers when I couldn’t watch it right away. I’m gonna have to do the same here. I’d really like a rule about spoilers within 48 hours of the race….

      I agree! What is the argument for spoiling the outcome? How does it help the community or the f1 instance?

        Reddit tried it some years ago and noticed that putting the results behind spoilers stifles discussion. So they reversed the rule.

        I am also annoyed by it when I get spoiled but other sources are just as likely to spoil me. Newspaper feeds, YouTube, probably spoiled me more often than Reddit.

          Fair points but now is our time to change that. We ain’t Reddit anymore.
