That sucks, man. I’ve had posts hit by random downvotes too and it’s super discouraging. Sometimes the only thing that helps is mixing up posting times or diversifying accounts so it’s harder for bots to target just one. Hope it gets sorted for you.

That's frustrating to deal with. Your best bet is to report this kind of activity to the forum moderators directly. They have the tools to investigate and stop it. Trying to counter-attack can often make things worse or get you into trouble yourself. Focus on posting good content, and let the admins handle the negative stuff.

Vary your posting times and formats-don't give the attacker an easy, predictable target.

If you can block or mute the suspected user, do that and report them to the mods.

Report it to the mods and Reddit admins with timestamps/screenshots, stop reposting the same stuff, vary your posting times/subs, and tighten account security so the attack can’t keep targeting you.
