Pretty much the title: I see multiple posts on 3-day old accounts, all promoting disinfo for the RUS, ISR, CHI or some weirdo faction thereof. CanI set a filter on my account to ignore these prolific bastards until they have attained certain age or number of responses that exceed the AI 's smarmy word count?

    If you check the age of my account, you’ll probably see why this approach isn’t foolproof.

    It wouldn’t be impossible to write a browser extension to look up, cache, and hide recent accounts, but I’m not sure if it’d accomplish anything.

    Also consider the possibility that not all of these accounts are bots. Lemmygrad has a whole bunch of real people supporting certain regimes thst also like to use bot swarms, for example.

    If these bots are coming from the same server every time, you may want to report this to your/their instance admins to hopefully do something about it.
