I’ve noticed that new posts aren’t coming through from the subreddits, and newly requested subreddits aren’t getting the automated response either. Seems to have stopped about 3 days ago.
Apologies if this is known/planned, but seeing as I couldn’t see any announcement about it I figured I ought to report it.
@admin@lemmit.online
I’m 99% sure it has to do with changes Reddit made to kill their RSS feeds, since Lemmit uses a sub’s RSS feed to fetch new posts.
Apparently the fix is to update the RSS feed URL to use the old.reddit.com domain lemdro.id/comment/1165007
@admin@lemmit.online you should give it a try. I personally will tomorrow if I have the time.
Hmm, seems like the Lemmit scripts are already using old.reddit.com. As linked by BlackEco above: https://gitlab.com/sab_from_earth/lemmit/-/blob/develop/src/reddit/reader.py#L46. The format is a little different, though; the Lemmit scripts use …/r/subredditname/.rss whereas that post you linked to says …/r/subredditname.rss.
Also, just FYI, your mention of the admin doesn’t seem to have worked. If it doesn’t come up in the suggestion list to select, I think it works if you just create a link: [@admin@lemmit.online](https://lemmit.online/u/admin). That’s all that selecting a user from the suggestion popup seems to do, anyway.

I think the bot is not working for a few days now
