According to the voting record, @Savvy@lemy.lol cast 788 downvotes in a single day.
Fun fact: 669 of those happened in about 15 minutes!!
At the peak, 90 downvotes were recorded in a single minute, which works out to him casting roughly one vote every two-thirds of a second.
Hmm. That’s pretty fast. Almost suspiciously fast for someone manually clicking every vote.
And during that same day, this account downvoted me 55 times.
That is an awful lot of clicking. Unless, of course, some kind of automated tool or bot was involved to help him do his downvote stalking. Hmmm....
Imagine being so annoyed with a handful of people on Lemmy that ya automate your downvoting just to keep following them around.
Of course, the timing alone doesn’t prove a bot was used. But 669 votes in about 15 minutes, with a peak of 90 in one minute, certainly raises the question.
Very interesting indeed.
