Hi, I'm the operator of this bot that has been crossposting from Reddit directly into lemmy/kbin communities every hour.
You can check this account post history, it has been posting every hour to various communities and I wanted to know if you guys have noticed. So far only a couple of users have mentioned in the comments that this account is a bot, other than that, on engaging posts, users seems to participate in discussions organically.
Why am I making this post?
I wanted to know your opinions, should this bot continue running? Should I adjust the criteria that's used for the posts? Should I increase or decrease frequency of posting?
I want to know what you think about crossposting in smaller communities that need help with content.
So far the bot takes posts no older than 3 hours and in some cases where the sub is smaller 5 hours.
The intent to which I made this bot is to help moderators of communities that are moving here from reddit or for any user that wants to mirror content here that he previously saw on reddit to spend less time there.
So, what do you guys think?
Check the bio for the GitHub link, as the bot is open source.
Thank you for participating!
You are right, but in this case I can hear you, you took the time to write this comment and I understand, I can decide what topics get posted as well, and with your feedback I can make the bot not post any war news. This is why I wanted feedback from the community to see what new features can I add so the content is actually useful.
Thanks, I really appreciate the engagement. That would be really cool if the bot coyld be diverse in its topics.
Full disclosure, I'm not actually the mag's mod - I reached out to them but haven't heard back yet.
