I'm seeing a lot of users on my preferred instance with <1yr old accounts, that have thousands of posts and comments. Whether these accounts are people with nothing better to do than post mindlessly 24/7, or are bots pushing some narrative, it doesn't make a difference, I'd rather not see what they're posting, because chances are, it's hogwash. It would be nice to be able to filter out these highly active accounts, based on a set variable of max posts per day, and/or comments per day. Any account that exceeds that variable is filtered out, and any account below it is allowed.

Does anyone have insight on whether or not this sort of filtering is possible to achieve on Lemmy? Is anyone else interested in having this sort of functionality?

Edit: I'm not trying to throw shade on active users. I appreciate active users. I'm looking to block users with AI image generated profile photos and have on average 10+ posts per day and 20+ comments per day. Those accounts seem suspicious to me.

There aren't that many of us (1 year account on @Blaze@sopuli.xyz ).

Keep in mind that we could just be trying to keep the platform active, not pushing any agenda. 1000 posts in a year is 3 posts per day, so does not require 24/7 posting

Then you check what quality content OP is posting and... 5 comments and this post. So they're doing their part.

Lurkers who post this stuff bug me. Wanting a stream of content but are so nitpicky about it, when all they have to do is start posting stuff themselves to kick up conversations

It shows me 93 comments and 2 posts for me. It probably just hasn't federated to your instance yet.
