A moderation bot that pings (DMs) moderators if something goes wrong. For example on spam, or if a comment gets massively downvoted. Maybe it could also detect brigading and other malicious behaviour. Or do semtiment analysis and point out hateful comments. Or scan images or enforce specific community policies.

I spoke with the instance owner of lemmings.world in matrix before and he invited me to try out his webhook system for Lemmy, which is extremely useful. I'll try making something with that. Maybe an automatic system where the bot moderates every community that it gets added as a mod to.

Awesome. Once it becomes useful, make sure to make it open source and link it somewhere in one of the Lemmy or Fediverse meta communities.

Yeah. Though I always open source my projects, no need for it to be useful for me to open source it.

If you're interested, here's the webhook system: https://github.com/RikudouSage/LemmyWebhook

It is, I just asked the creator how to use it on other instances, as the ReadMe states
