    Seriously now, I know it’s been a bit of a moot point with Verstappen this year, but can we please stop spoiling the race win in the title and photo for those who don’t watch it live?!?!

      I always remove Lemmy and other social media from my phone on race day, since I always watch delayed. I highly recommend it.

      You can’t expect everyone to accomodate you in these kinds of things.

          It’s hard to supress the automatic Internet zombie inside of me sometimes. I’d be waiting in line at the bakery, or sitting in the sofa and just out of habit open up an app.

          My social media apps are web based though, so reinstalling is really easy and I’m still logged in when I do.

          Prior to reddit imploding, I used a parental control app to lock myself out of my reddit and youtube apps on race days.

      Just don’t watch your socials, I even switch off the radio when the news is on.
