Compare
Sloth Lee vs Dyno — an honest comparison.
Dyno is a strong moderation bot with extensive customisation and a long history. The trade-off: dense UI, lots of pages of toggles, and a premium tier required for several baseline mod surfaces.
Our take
Dyno earned its reputation by giving moderators deep customisation. We respect that. Sloth Lee starts opinionated — sensible defaults, three rules, a setup wizard — and lets advanced users take the gloves off when they need to. If you live in your moderation dashboard for hours every week, Dyno's depth might suit you better. If you want it to mostly take care of itself with a calm floor, that's where we differ.
Pick Dyno when…
- You want fine-grained per-channel automod conditions today and don't mind setting them up by hand.
- Your community runs on Dyno's existing custom commands and migration cost is non-trivial.
- You prefer a per-server pricing model with one-time premium that doesn't recur per-account.
Pick Sloth Lee when…
- You want a setup wizard that gets you a usable baseline in 5 minutes.
- You manage 2+ servers and want one premium subscription to cover all of them.
- You care about a built-in support inbox + ticket system without bolting one on.
- GDPR self-serve, signed webhooks, and a real audit log on the free tier matter to you.
