How about something actionable? Name and shame specific accounts so we can block them.

melonhusk@sh.itjust.works and bagel@lemmings.world were two bot accounts that were posting a lot today. Although, bagel might have mostly been posting in a different ask lemmy community

If they haven't been tagged as bots please report them. The ability to mark an account as a bot + the ability to hide all bot accounts is there for a reason and whoever is creating all of these accounts is not playing a fair game.

Mods + admins are keeping an eye on reports and there's tons of accounts being banned every day across threadiverse. Some trolls give up after a while (new ones always pop up, but that's just the internet).
