Can I see all the communities I'm banned from on Lemmy somewhere? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

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?

The automated bot was created by the mod of pleasant politics in an effort to create a place to talk about politics that didn't have trolls and nasty people. It scans users across the lemmyverse and determines to ban or unban based on how inflammatory you are, which is determined by your downvote/upvotes ratio over time.

That seems quite easy to game. Create a bunch of accounts across multiple instances, target a user you don't like, find comments / posts with low vote counts and downvote all of those. That'll skew the ratio and get them "preemtively" banned from communities that use that bot.
