Lately, I’ve recognized many posts from very new accounts here, usually younger than a day. They post a couple of news articles and are never to be seen again.
I’ve checked this communitiy’s modlog and many new accounts get banned relatively quickly. Their behaviour is eerily similar, even their profile pictures have similar styles, so it seems to be the same origin.

Out of curiosity, is there some lore I missed?

More seriously, I think we users in this community maybe should be more conscious about this and stop interacting with posts from these profiles.

Dunno if my post makes any sense, it’s just something weird I noticed and wanted to say something about.

    I do use Voyager but all you get is a tag that it’s a new account and not a filter on all accounts under a certain age.

    Even just a filter for all accounts less than 2 days old would be enough to get rid of the spam accounts that get deleted.
