    Same.

    I need a bot to push out the news for my community, but idk how to make, implement, or maintain a Lemmy news bot. Idk even know where to start. GitHub is confusing.

      Does your university has a subreddit? Just copy pasting news from there every week would help.

      Also create regular “Discussion thread” like once a week

        Ya I think there’s a subreddit, but it’s not too popular. Been a while since I’ve been on reddit.

        There are university press releases like daily, and that’s what I’ve been wanting to bot over.

      I’m actually not that concernd. I just took over the community because it was modless, but all I really care about is identifying spiders. Also it’s currently winter in the northern hemisphere, that always slows things down.

      But I found a spider this morning and it’s been a while … so I made a post.
