Every post history digger uses AI tools to summarize user posts and then picks something to attack them on.
Nah I do my own post history digging by hand. Usually only look when a user is being particularly ornery or an ass and then a post history look reveals whether they're a troll or not.
On Reddit I mean. There are many tool for it like https://roastdit.kadoa.com/ especially used by right-wingers. (disclaimer I do not know what the exact tool they use is, probably not that one)
I meant on Reddit as well.
Some may use AI, but looking at post history is a long held tradition on social media sites.
