What's Karrinator?

There's nothing that explains it on its description page. Based on comments on its page (translated to English), my wild guess is: it's making people laugh while reading news somehow by changing names of politicians in the news articles.

Thanks for the other suggestions too.

Damn, I just noticed I accidentally wrote in german, I didn't even notice the post is in english lol. To Germans it would make sense, as it's exactly what you noticed; it just changes Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauers name to something funny, she's an ex-defense minister of Germany.

LOL.

Why specifically her though. Although, the idea is neat. Does it generate random funny names?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Well, it's based on an apparently pretty large set of funny names for her, thought of by r/ich_iel etc.
