Spam Link Flagger | Reddit for Developers

Readme

This Dev Platform app flags comments via reports when:

  • A user makes a comments with a link on an old post
  • A user edits a comment that didn't originally include a link to include one.

By default, an "old post" is one that is 30 days or older, but this setting can be configured as you wish. You can also configure a "grace period" (default 5 minutes) where a user editing a comment to include a link will not result in it being flagged.

Only comments made since the app was installed will be checked on edit. This is because the app needs to check the original body text, and this is only stored once the app is installed.
