The SCP sub had a bot that would tag any relevant SCP articles that you mention in your title or in the comments. It was extremely useful for getting into the community.
I always found it funny when Marvin would go rogue and appear outside the SCP sub (which wasn't supposed to happen). Perhaps he was an SCP himself ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
For certain tcg/ccgs, some roleplay games with talent trees, even for Lego sets mentioned the bots on reddit subs were great ways to provide relevant context. There is most definitely a place for utility bots in modern social media, the difficult part is figuring out how to define a reasonable limit on that and how to enforce it effectively.
