Hello - Please take a look at @[email protected] . They have downvoted every single post in 3 communities (over 200 posts) in a very narrow window of time. They either automated their voting, or they are very focused

      This is me asking the LW admins to confirm my findings and follow their TOS.

      I see the votes on my side, I know its true.

        So a quick sentiment analysis with two hypotheses:

        ‘The author of this text {} .’

        h0: ‘engaging in respectful, normal internet banter’ h1: ‘is trolling or otherwise being rude.’

        Looks pretty respectful.

        and their usage patterns:

        Looks like someone you might have just decided to have a problem with.z

        Edit: So you’ve edited your post and claim to see the evidence on your side, but still, have not provided anything. Claiming someone is a bot and engaging in vote manipulation is a big claim and requires big evidence. I don’t currently believe you since you haven’t provided any.

            it’s part of some tooling I’ve built up over the years to do basic user analysis.

            If you ask around I’ve shared it with many of the regulars. Since Lemmy doesn’t have a proper API, this simply uses a headless browser.

          I’m not trying to prove anything to you, you’re not a lemmy world administrator

          This entire post is to ask the Lemmy world administrators to intervene.

            you are making an accusation that has already had real consequences and show no evidence to suggest that it’s true.

              I thought it wasn’t a secret that votes were somewhat public. If they aren’t, ok, but that’s news to me.
