Found a way to keep a banned meme up for a whole month
I mean, there was this one image macro about a certain world leader that kept getting zapped instantly on the big platforms. The problem was the auto mod bots. So I tried a dumb trick: I flipped the image upside down and changed the text font to something really basic. Idk why, but it worked. It stayed live on my profile for like 30 days before a real person finally saw it and took it down. It makes you think, free speech is now just a game of tricking robots. Has anyone else found a weird workaround that actually lasted a while?

lol that's genius. I did something similar with a sound clip, just pitched it way down so it was super deep and slow. The bot missed it for weeks.

That upside down trick is solid. Hunt.max has the right idea with audio too, pitching it down is smart. For text posts, swapping letters with numbers or special characters works sometimes, like using a zero for the letter O. The key is making it just different enough that the pattern matching fails but humans can still read it. Real mods always catch it eventually, but you can buy a lot of time.
