So you can see the above from the mass downvote tool created by @heimindanger, that's the situation the time I publish this article.

You can compare that with the trending page the day when he started a war against those botted posts, it has gotten a lot better. There are fewer posts flagged by the tool, and approximately half of them have less than 90% bot rate!

I would say that this was a success. Now that many bot users are aware of it, which means they will use them more carefully. Huge thank you to the founder of DTube @heimindanger for creating this.

# But wait! Revenge against my downvote?
Yep. I got revenged once today. That's it 🤐 I was lucky enough not to be spammed with downvotes from bid bots which kills my account instantly, considering I only have 37.2 reputation score at time of publishing this article.

If you look at the original posts (linked below), there are way more haters out there!
