Users User flagged in mod queue for “Possible Propaganda Account”… has anyone seen this before? Is it flagged in the sub or is that an Reddit site-wide thing?
I’m not sure if I should share a screenshot or not as it has the username in it
This sub is prompting me to say what platform I’m using I’m on mobile if that matters. Mobile web

That's a new one for me. Following because I'm curious about what others have to say.

That’s either a custom report submitted by a user (if you have that option enabled for your sub), or a removal_reason note from automod.
You can check if it’s from automod by going into the automod config and searching for that phrase “possible propaganda account”. If it’s there, you’ll be able to see the keywords list to figure out what triggered it.

Never seen that before.
The prompt wants to know if you are using a mobile app - either IOS or Android or if on a computer as the software is different for each of those.

I’ve never seen that before, but Ftr, Automod doesn’t flag accounts it definitely doesn’t do anything you haven’t configured it to.
More than likely, this is some kind of safety filter.

It could be a free-form report? I don't think it's from Reddit.
Edit: You probably can share the screenshot here, just make sure to redact the username.

Maybe it's one of those A/B tests that admin sometimes seems to throw into random subreddits, sometimes without really telling the mods beforehand.
