Okay amazing race but this is way out line for a spoiler title and image. Iโm glad I didnโt pick up my phone in the middle of watching or before I started, there are plenty of us in this community that have to watch races not live and we deserve to not have the results ruined like this. This should be a clear rules violation and the post deleted.
If you aren't going to watch live, block the community from your feed until you watch. r/formula1 went through this same debate years ago and found that censoring all posts during and after a race stifled the discussion, and it would be the same result here.
Literally all that's required is not have it plastered on the title and in the thumbnail. "British Grand Prix 2023 Discussion" is perfectly fine, and btw, is what the other formula 1 community is doing, and it doesn't appear to be stifling discussion over there.
I don't know, I think you taking care/curate you intake of news, and therefore intake of current F1 news, is on you, not the international F1 community wanting to discuss the race live. Why would the rest of the F1 fans over the world put things on hold because of you? Honest question. I know there are more like you but let's be real, that number is a fragment of the people who watch live, I suspect.
Nobody is asking anyone to put anything on hold. A "post race discussion thread" would be the same discussion with a non-spoiler title.
