I’m planning to launch a Discourse community, and maybe it’s a stupid question, but after reading your post, I wonder if there is any protection in this platform against AI-generated spam or some coordinated abuse ?

Discourse AI - Spam detection spam detection feature It sounds like the AI spam detection handles obvious per-post spam very effectively. I’m curious how teams handle situations where no individual post breaks rules, but activity across multiple accounts or over time still feels coordinated …

That’s where community moderation features come in. If your members notice something is off with a given post, they can flag it. The “something else” reason is handy as a way to inform moderators about a noticed trend.

Makes sense,thanks for clarifying. Out of curiosity, how does this typically scale in larger or very active communities? Does the flagging system usually surface trends clearly enough, or do moderators sometimes need to correlate activity across posts and accounts manually?
