The bot is 1m old. Just wait until it gets suspended for “multiple, repeated violations of the content policy” (translation: “don’t you dare to shoo the botters! Bot = activity!”).
This account exhibits multiple major traits commonly found in karma farming bots. It is extremely likely that u/Yagirlbella_ is a bot made to farm karma, and it is recommended that you downvote their posts to hinder their success.
That’s probably the banworthy part, arguably amounts to “brigading.”
At this rate they don’t even need it to be banworthy, they simply ban stuff that counters their interests and call it a day.
Oh sure, I mean, I couldn’t care less what Reddit The Company decides to do with Reddit The Website, or what Reddit The Actual Human Userbase thinks about it. Fuck em all.
But I can also see that bringing consequences on to a bot that calls for mass downvoting of individual accounts could be justified, with disregard to what platform the bot operates on.
Fair.
We’re at the point where simply using subs equals brigading to some mods
Interesting

Would be more impactful if it gave a sample size for the posts. An account that made one repost as its only post is 100% but imo not as convincing as one that made 12 and also has 100%.
It’s going to be busy.
I need one for Lemmy if possible
Do karma farming bots even have any point on lemmy though?
Karma farming? Of course not- the lack of account-wide karma means Lemmy accounts are worthless to sell.
Now, bots that push propaganda on the other hand…
Propaganda always seems human everytime I see someone pushing an agenda.
Do you have any examples of potential propaganda bots?
Those wouldn’t be detectable in quite the same way as the reddit “repost a post from awhile ago that got a lot of upvotes because that post is proven to be popular” type karma farmer bots though, I’d figure? Especially given that AI nowadays would allow for them to not just repeat the same comments
I’m curious too, the userbase seems too small for anyone to bother
I tried making something like this for lemmy, kinda cool to see how theirs works.
I feel attacked.
