I came from a place where the local non-reddit non-English forum has so few mods and necessary resources to effectively moderate. Trolls are everywhere which is so detrimental to quality discussion.

Question: do we have mods and the necessary tools and resources in Lemmy to counter them?

    I haven’t seen any obvious bots in the wild here (yet), but they’ll come soon enough. There are at least a couple Github repos out there (i.e. this one) with bot libraries so I’d expect some of the old reddit bots could make some sort of a comeback pretty soon.

        100% agree, I’m actually working on a pretty basic Stable Diffusion bot to plug into one of the AI art communities, only to respond when someone calls it in a comment. I’d also like to see some wiki bots and such, as well as general moderation tools
