Some of my subs were attacked, some were taken down, others stayed alive. The attacks are over but it seems the accounts they sent to my subs are still upvoting every new post.

I'm assuming no, but is there any way to stop this?

I dont think there is a way to stop this because that spam is probably sent by your competitors.

It seems that you have competitors with low morals, sadly there isn't much you can do. It's part of the game in your niche I guess. (just a guess about the niche but I may be wrong)

Turn on the highest level of spam filtering on the subs. That's the only way. Attacks eventually stop

Yes spam filter can help little bit, and you can do something like honeypot type, post something random, useless, that no one give upvotes, once you get upvotes on that post, contact reddit support with proof, i think they might can help you with this.

To address bot upvotes, enable post approval in subreddit settings, analyze patterns using tools like CrowdTangle, report bot activity to Reddit admins, and tighten automod rules to block suspicious behavior.

Can you tell me what alternatives CrowdTangle has since it hasn't worked since early 2024?
