These are starting to really stack up with the nutty mods in some of these places and I'd like to keep score and perhaps display them somewhere. I'm wondering if there's a list?

If not, short of crawling every community findable by an account and checking banned status by e.g. attempting to post, is there a way to collate such a list programmatically with e.g. an API or cURL or selenium automation, given the structure of the fediverse?

How can you actually think at all, and arrive at such a conclusion?

Bold claim, asserting that whoever downvoted you thought before doing it. Humans short-circuit all the time, nothing you can do about that, and getting bitter or exasperated won't help, either. Deal with it. If you want you can start your comments with something universally agreeable, that always helps, and only then get into details. "Universally agreeable" as in "agreeable to both truth and all false notions anyone on earth has at the moment". If you want to get idiots to listen you have to start out on a common ground that they share.

More specifically, in this case, you could've started your comment with a short rant about the state of availability of ADHD medication.

I'm not bitter, ultimately none of this affects me in the selfish sense, just lightly perplexed. I appreciate your explanation. Figures most people just have kneejerk reactions.
