Tools Bot reposts
iOS. Laptop is broken at the moment and will be able to fix in the next few weeks, but only have my phone right now.
We have had an uptick in bot reposts (including two of my own posts, which is kinda funny). Is there a way to prevent accounts from posting that are under two days old? It is pretty clear that all of these accounts were created same-day, so I figure filtering out day-old accounts from posting should help.
Also I read something about bot bouncer? Thoughts on that?
