Comment on PSA: If you're tired of political posts in Technology, block user L4

Or segment into more than 1 bot. 1 tries to only surface tech, another is less choosey. Then we block per taste. I’m not talking about 5 bots. 2, maybe 3.

  How does one write a Lemmy bot? A couple of communities I moderate could benefit from a bot to post regular threads based on a template or respond to comments that contain key phrases.

    I can at least get you started if not just make it for you. I can even host it for you until the code is complete.
    
    Thanks so much for the generous offer!
    
    Email me and we can chat.
    
    Would you be opposed to chatting publicly, perhaps on !lemmy_dev@programming.dev or !lemmybotsupport@lemmy.world? The communities aren’t very active, but seem like suitable places to discuss this topic. I can’t imagine that we are the only people interested in this, and I feel that fostering some open-source bot development could be beneficial for the fediverse as a whole.
