I’m thinking of looking at the Lemmy api and that’s best done when you have some actual problem to solve!

So, is there any bot that you’d like to see?

        Was thinking about that but it’s often considered annoying, so I thought I’d ask first.

          I liked the summarize bot. That one was actually contributing to conversations.

        I would rather have Lemmy get the ability to follow a comment or post. That’s mostly what it had been used for.

      It’s funny you mention that. My friend’s teenage son had made a bot for Reddit years ago when it was a new thing while he was in a summer program for computer science. The bot would post theater times for latest movie releases in local subreddits and it was considered a helpful bot by most. I got used to relying on it quite a bit - until one time I took the family to what I thought was a Lego movie, but we ended up seeing Darren Aronofsky’s Mother! My father had came with two of my 2nd cousins and he was disturbed to say the least. When we got home, my dad was so upset that he beat me unmercifully with a set of jumper cables to teach me a lesson - you shouldn’t expose the family to such nonsense he said. Needless to say I will never rely on online bots for movie times with my family again.
