I just hate having qualifying and the races spoiled by headlines. I know this is "me" problem, but I can't be the only one, right?

I agree for sure, I commented on a spoiler post just the other day on the Formula E community about this same thing.

On reddit they used vague titles like "congrats to the Monaco GP winner!" And then have the drivers image as the post. That should be common courtesy.

Hey, I'm currently the only active mod in this community (the founder being seemingly inactive since creating it).

I almost never watch races live (family/life), so I wouldn't be able to enforce a rule like that even if I wanted to.

I too unsub from r/formula1 around a race weekend if I know I can't watch live.

I'd like to bring a few people in as mods in here, as well as bring up a set of rules for this community. I'll likely post about this later this week.

Hi, I would be happy to help moderate here if you need help, I am a big F1 fan and have plenty of experience in moderation on social media!

When I'm less unwell I'll put a post up about the community, I'll be calling out for mods in there. I'm leaving this reply in my inbox as unread so I don't forget you.

Sorry to hear you are having health issues.

Definitely let us know when it’s time to add more mods. With all of us refugees I’m sure you’ll have your pick of names. Including myself.

How does it work if a community creator disappears? Is it possible to transfer ownership? How can we prevent it from being abandoned with no effort going in?

In /c/community_requests you can post to take over an abandoned community. That's how I ended up being a mod in here.
