I’ve just had this idea. Why don’t we create a bot that scans comments and replies to them with boardgamegeek links for every game found in the comment?

To simplify the implementation Inwould be favourable to introduce some sort of syntax to make unambiguous whether or not some words are a game name or not.

What do you think about this idea?

    This is even better than what I was thinking. I wonder if Lemmy APIs allows it tho.

      I am not opposed to the idea. If you need my support as the mod, please feel free to reach out

        Good to know that you’re not contrary, however, I just wanted to bring an idea to the attention of the community. Right now I have neither the time nor the knowledge to do such a thing.

          I guess the entire foundation thing is taking its toll.

          But if there is someone willing to make such a mod, I am all for helping where I can.
