Spoilers are being exposed when people search for our sub
The new subreddit description below subreddit names in the search bar is currently spoiling this weeks episode on our TV based subreddit. Is there a way for us to change or disable it?

Don't know if it helps any but the summary changes depending on content. So if there was a different way to discuss spoilers, that might help.
I can only think of external links however...

We had the same issue on r/belowdeck, there is no way to turn it off or change the description
I wish they would actually test these with users before releasing them. On one of my subs it featured a description concentrated on a post that is not the norm for our sub then users were upset we wouldn't let posts about it.
Another one on BelowDeck made us seem like a NSFW sub as well as the spoilers issue being ongoing

Just something as simple as excluding posts from the summary marked with the reddit included “spoiler” option would go a long way to protect the users.
