How to deal with spammy comments and fake accounts on launch day?

Question

Has anyone found an efficient way to identify spammy fake accounts during a product launch?

From my experience with the past two launches, I've found out that there are fake accounts that bring drawbacks to the competition through snappy comments from just registered accounts (with 🎈), which reduces the potential reach by triggering some PH black-box algorithms.

How does spam influence the engagement and interactions on your product launch page?

I hope we can collaborate with the ProductHunt team to tackle spam comments on our launch pages. Perhaps we can discover a more cohesive way of dealing with this issue.

Discussing our experiences might shed some light on its effectiveness and drawbacks.
