Once again this user, and seemingly only this user, submits posts that specifically spoils race results the moment the race is over. There already is a post-race thread, this is superfluous.
I am once again asking that race results not be posted in post titles, while of course within individual threads race spoilers are to be expected.
I am blocking this user, but if race results cannot be omitted from post titles, I’ll have to block the entire community. That is no way to increase community involvement.
Sure, that is probably a good idea. But it’s only necessary here because people are being dickheads.
Edit:
To the dickheads who are struggling with the logic here. I’ll simplify it for you. Who knows, maybe you’re just dumb, and not primarily a dickhead. In which case, there is a non-zero chance this might be appreciated.
There are only two groups of people who can read the title “Hamilton wins GP”: People who already know Hamilton won, and, stay with me here, people who don’t know Hamilton won.
For the former group, the title is exactly as informative as something like “Barcelona GP results in - Discussion Thread” (or similar). For the latter, the ones who don’t know, it is exactly as informative as “Barcelona GP results in - Discussion Thread”, with one optional click away, to get the post text or article, where the details are given.
So, the only way you think it is a good idea to put the results in posts titles, and then go “you should avoid social media, because people spoil the results in titles”… well, you’re either a bit dim, or a dickhead, or both. Congrats if you are sufficiently self aware to know what applies. Maybe you’re not as dumb as others think you are.
“local Internet user mad that the rest of the world doesn’t conform to their needs. Blocks entire Internet as a punishment to the other 5 billion people. More news at ten”
Au revoir, then, to your shitty attitude and shitty community.
Good bye and never come back. People who make other responsible for their own lack of media savviness and then turn to insults are neither welcome nor do you follow the instance rules of both LW.world and LW.ca (.ca instance rule “Argue in good faith, attack the argument; not the person, and promote a healthy debate.”)

Avoid social media if you’re not watching it live. Same as anything else.

Time to happily block another community
“local Internet user mad that the rest of the world doesn’t conform to their needs. Blocks entire Internet as a punishment to the other 5 billion people. More news at ten”
We had a vote recently and the conclusion was that results in the title are permitted.
A discussion thread is not a news announcement.
Finally.

I thought you blocked me. Empty promises…
Will you also block the people who posted https://sh.itjust.works/post/61469696 and https://sh.itjust.works/post/61467616 because those “spoil” news as well?
Au revoir, then, to your shitty attitude and shitty community.

Aw, you’re so addicted to social media you can’t stay off of lemmy for a while? Don’t blame others for your mistakes.
