    PieFed has some tools already. Like if someone mostly contributes posts rather than comments, they get a label slapped next to their username to indicate a potential unregistered bot account.

    Similarly an account less than two weeks old gets a different label, and someone who gives/receives mainly downvotes rather than upvotes a different label. You can also apply custom icons next to users of your choice (only you would see these).

    They are very helpful! Seeing such a label may change how you interact with that “person” - e.g. you could block them, or answer differently or not at all. Knowledge is power.
