Thanks again for the quick fixes!
So just got in and did some tests, with quotes in place in the title and body things look to be working flawless in that regard. However a new problem is popping up. I just tested out 2-3 threads, scheduling each of them 3-7 mins into the future (just to give the server and the bot time in case of traffic and since I’m not in a rush). Zippy is now auto posting the threads. We’re (as of this comment) still 6 mins away from when the most recent one I scheduled should appear, but it’s been there on the community for 2-3 mins now lmao.
One bug down, 4 more shall rise!

I see it!
- Comment on Lemmy.zip Mod Tools 2 months ago:
Figured that was gonna cause an issue lol. And no worries! :)
- Comment on Lemmy.zip Mod Tools 2 months ago:
No go.
So I got this as a return from Zippy (I cut off the ID and lower).
So it accepted the request, tho the post body isn’t appearing in the confirmation. I set it for 2-3 mins after my last comment to you and it did not trigger.

Whoops lol. Shall try again.

Ok I set up the welcome post earlier with no issues yet. I got the confirmation dm from Zippy so unless if someone tells me otherwise in the next day or two, it should be fine.
Tried the autopost, I did not receive a confirmation of any kind from Zippy. Below is exactly how I formatted what I sent including spacing and such (which if I did it and read it correctly should have made an autopost around 7-8 mins ago:

Will do!

Also just to confirm for us dumbs - For the Autopost feature, re: formatting for the body of the post. Quotes or no quotes? Does it support markdown as well like the welcome message does?

Love it, this’ll come in really handy.

As long as T2 ensures Randy Pitchford doesn’t take 10 mins out of the Borderlands 4 announcement conference to show us another fucking card trick, I’ll be happy.
Yes I’m still a bit salty about that lol.

I’m sure CO leadership is asking the same question right now while hoping a modder comes along to fix the game for them.
- Comment on Why do I get light-headed when watching TV shows or movies? 3 months ago:
Need more details. What are you watching when it happens? Or are you saying if you watch CSI, Sesame Street and a David Attenborough documentary about ants back to back you’d get light-headed 3 times, once during each?
As ValiantDust said it could just be motion sickness depending what it is you’re watching.

Rooster Teeth was a shell of itself for a long time, but those first few seasons of Red vs Blue were a fundamental part of my damn teenage years.

Geoff, thank you for realizing the issue and addressing it. This is also the 10th year The Game Awards have been going on my man, come on lol.
- Comment on YouTube TV, which costs $73 a month, agrees to end “$600 less than cable” ads 8 months ago:
Yep. I’ve had Plex set up for over a decade now, I just add in random fast stuff like Pluto/Tubi/ShoutFactory to supplement when I want something ‘else’. Last time I had cable was November 2009, haven’t had Netflix since 2013/2014 or so.
- Comment on Amazon Prime Video is able to remove a video from your library after purchase. 8 months ago:
I saw this coming a mile away a decade ago.
Ditto. I’m Canadian so our media libraries typically have sucked compared to the US. Back 10-12 years or so ago I remember Netflix making comments online about looking into blocking Canadians from using vpn’s, DNS services and the like to access American Netflix.
Like…motherfuckers I’ve been pirating since June 1, 1999 when Napster came out, and several years earlier if we wanna count a wall of VHS recordings as piracy. I cancelled that day, and set up Plex. Now a decade+ and 30TB later I haven’t had to worry about it for a second, and neither have over a dozen of my close friends lol.
