Features

  • Poll feature - Admins can create polls and users can vote on them
  • Help functionality. The bot will PM helpul advice.
  • Welcome PM - the bot scans new applications to the site and sends a PM to the user with helpful info
  • Create a community. The bot will allow a user with a score above one you set to create a community via PM. The bot will add the user as a mod then de-mod itself. Useful for turning off open community applications and allowing trusted members to create communities.
  • Email new users between verifying email stage and admin acceptance stage (so new users don’t get confused and think they’re locked out of their accounts!)
  • A bunch of other helpful tools for Admins

    Hey, I’m the creator :)

    happy to take any suggestions on what you’d like to see added

    Neat! Thanks for building bot tools for Lemmy!

    The ability to reply to comments which contain a particular phrase with a standard response seems most interesting to me. Serious communities could use it to remind users of the community rules (no swearing, hate-speech, etc.), and less-serious communities could use it to remind users of the appropriate meme or phrase. The SpaceX and LOTR meme subs had customized bot responses, which I miss.

    Would also be interesting if the bot could be plugged into other APIs like The Space Devs to make automatic posts with info on upcoming events.

      Well, as proof of concept I made a Legolas bot (confined this community currently) that with any luck will reply to this comment with a legolas quote.

      Going to see if I can spin it out into a generic docker container that anyone can customize and run.
