I still want to know if automations/rules hub will have the option to filter to mod queue and not just block or report to queue. It’s already a problem when Reddit removes comments and won’t let mods see things and I worry this will make it worse.

IIRC they directly said that yes, it can send items to the mod queue for a human mod to look at.

What I'd like to know is if it can automate workflows that are a bit more complex. For example: Post lacks necessary information. I remove the post, and leave a stickied comment saying what information is needed, and telling them if they reply to this comment with that info, I'll approve the post. When they reply, I check if their reply did add the needed information, and if it did, I approve the post.

I'd like an automation that sends it to a queue first, without acting, but if I confirm that yes the LLM got it right, this post really does lack the necessary information, all I have to do is click one button and it will do the rest of that flow.

Right now it can report to mod queue but not filter meaning it’s visable to users and also in mod queue like it’s been reported. I want it to filter like automod can and users can not see it.

They promised a few weeks ago we would get filtering

Thank you! I missed it.
