New releases are a chance to talk about how a project is developing. I’m happy to make another post in a bigger community to get more feedback, but I wanted to check here first to see if this is something you might want to do @[email protected]
A potential process could be
- User makes a request in [email protected], and tags the relevant mod
- If the mod approves, they can tag the admin of this instance to turn the feed on
There are also general communities that this could work for, such as [email protected] or [email protected], but those communities are active and may see this as spam. It may help to crosspost the bot posts to them instead.
Technical:
- This article had some information on creating feeds for GitHub.
- There may be a similar option for the GitHub alternatives.
- F-Droid would be cool, but I don’t think that’s possible yet
Potential issue: Repos with lots of pre-releases may feel like spam. Relevant issues here and here. Those repos could be skipped.
(sorry if this was already discussed)
Cool that sounds good! I’ll give it out slowly with a few communities
I like the about section on the bot’s user profile
