Removing images from new users (self.meta)

So recently theres been a bunch of trolls posting csam over in some other communities in the All feed. So handling this can be automated instead of a bunch of people needing to report it every time ive made it so users that have barely any activity in their account will no be able to make image posts

Let me know if theres any issues with the bot. Its also open source here https://github.com/programming-dot-dev/karma-bot (theres prebuilt docker images but theyre a bit bugged currently so if you want to use docker build it yourself)

this is the account that will be removing posts / showing up in the modlog - Ategon speaking here

Hey, I'm new here and got my first post removed because of this policy. I think the policy makes sense, so I am not upset that it happened. However, since I made the post to a different server (lemmy.ml), which did not autoreject the post, it seems the post is still up and I am unable to reply to comments. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

[โ€“] Ategon 1 points 7 months ago

yeah lemmy does some wonky federation behaviours in this kind of case

Ive restored the post. At some point I should be making it easier to manually review things the bot does but havent had time to do that currently
