Several users and I have noticed an increase in antagonism and generally unhelpful behaviors with comments and votes in !autism@lemmy.world. Discussing it with the community users, they suggested that there might be trolls or bots that have been upset with the community. We would like to point out that we recently made a post stating that the mods will enforce the age restriction on the site should anyone identify themselves as below 18 years old.
We were wondering if there are any tools that we can use to analyze votes and account interactions in the community. Any ideas?
Only thing I can think of would be to spin up a new instance, subscribe to the community, and then run queries against the db directly to identify bot or troll-like behavior in the community
Previously I would have said to just browse the community from Kbin because it used to expose a lot more user activity, such as upvoted/downvoted posts/users, but I believe that’s no longer visible…
Hopefully as Lemmy continues to develop, more tools become available
