Weird, right before I saw this I was thinking ways to more prominently display news. Blocking by URL is reasonable but I'm not sure if enough people would use it to justify the work.

We don't need training wheels. If these bad credit Americans can't read a link before they click it that's their own damn fault. This shit ain't as complicated as picking cotton for fucks sake.

He said, and I quote:

So what exactly is the problem?

Okay, I get it. You want a special tool so that you can avoid exposing your eyes to certain links. Am I close?

Is it possible to set up Voat to automatically switch posts with links from certain sites to an archive link using:

- https://archive.fo/

People could link whatever and then Voat.co would run a script that checks a "Blacklisted" website list. If the link is flagged, then Voat.co automatically converts them (example: www.FoxJews.com) to an archive link post.

It would be an viable alternative to censorship.

I'm impressed dwb! Didn't see you as a Free Speech Warrior. Yes of course OP's sub is stupid. We should not hide from information from any source. The skill is to analyse that information and discern what is seed and what is chaff - obviously a task too difficult for OP and @Fascinus !

That's easy, old cobber.

Censorship has its place! Don't you ever BITCH if/when your son/grandson comes home from school dressed in pink tights and wearing a tiara! You enabled That. by not standing up against it and shutting it down!
