A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Lol, you can tell which commenters have never moderated anything in this thread, IMO. If it weren't for the high likelihood that these summaries will be wrong an appreciable percentage of the time, this would be a huge help for anyone moderating medium traffic subs. Those types of subs, especially if they have relatively hands-on moderation to keep them from being complete cesspools, often involve seeing a comments or post that is borderline, and feeling like you need to go look through the poster's history to figure out if they're a bot or a troll. Something like this that actually worked, especially if it linked back to a sampling of the posts/comments that it is referencing, would be a big help in that. Also something like this that summarized a user's moderation history would be pretty useful.
