I’m currently creating a reposter bot for a community (r/fosttalicska alternative) because I can’t make good enough memes. It’s basically in a just enough working state for now, but I can apply that bot to here too.

Would you be okay with reposting some memes from Reddit via a bot?

EDIT: Should it be on lemmy.world instead?

    Oh great to have an approval! And which instance would you prefer? Lemmy.ml or lemmy.world? Each of them have pros/cons.

    Lemmy.ml:

    • You’re the mod here and also active
    • Hearsay says that the admins don’t like words like “bitch”

    Lemmy.world:

    • Mods are inactive
    • Lemmy.world is de facto instance
    • Less restrictive?

        Oh my I didn’t expect such a turn of events. It’s nice to see you have a bot too ^^. So can I leave 2visegrad4you in your hands now? (My uni will start soon, and that was the reason that for some days you got no reposts, but probably I just need to setup the script onto my uni laptop as well).

        Wow and your code is significantly smaller too. Power of Python it seems.

          Oh sure, yes I can add 2v4u to my bot. Although if you ever want to keep working on yours we can go back to using it :-)

          Yeah I ended up being too lazy to code in rust lmao otherwise I would have contributed to yours

            I didn’t plan to leave my bot in this current state, I just lost my motivation currently. Hopefully gonna continue it sometime afterwards.

      Hmm, it’s true that .world is the default instance now… But if the mods are inactive I guess it’d be better to repost to here. I can make you mod as well if you like

        Yeah technically it should be possible, but lately I haven’t done anything on the script yet. I didn’t even automate it, because found some path problems that needs a proper solution. Gonna check on it then.
