    I forked r/anime’s holo bot (u/AutoLovepon) and swapped it to Lemmy’s API. It should be good to go (a second pair of eyes might be nice, I’m not perfect!) I PM’d the mods, if they give the go-ahead it can be up and running in probably an hour. Code here for your pleasure, let me know if I missed something

    I can try my hand at porting holo to Lemmy and making it send posts here. What say you, mods? @N3DSdude@lemmy.ml @Nami@lemmy.ml > Well… that was easier than expected! I’m done porting holo (link) – now I’m just waiting on the mods to contact me so we can decide on how (and if) we should set the bot up.

        Quick work! Well done.

        I’d love to see this community grow, and having automatic places for discussion would certainly help it along.

          Yeah I think I’ll do that since it appears that the mods on this community are taking a break right now.

          Paging @vole@lemmy.world: would your community be interested in testing out a port of holo bot for automated episode discussions?

          EDIT: As of yesterday, my home instance has started blocking lemmy.world for some unknown reason, so I won’t be able to reach out to the anime community over there until we figure out what’s going on 🤷

        Awesome! Seeing that pretty simple PR has me tempted to look at useful tools and bots to try porting over here for a few communities. Maybe I’ve just found something to do this weekend.

    Strongly agreed. There’s a saucenao bot for hentai already, we need one for anime discussions too

    Yeah I’ve been using the anime discussion bot as my “anime reminder”

    Having one would be really nice

    Not quite sure about this. Honestly, this community is way too small to have lively discussions every anime episode that airs. The home page might just look like the episode bot spamming lots of posts with around 3 to 4 comments. We need to get bigger as a community first before this.

      The community won’t get bigger because we come to discuss anime and then there is no anime discussion thread.

        You’ve got a very optimistic outlook. Let’s hope you’re right about the community actually getting bigger if we have episode discussion threads. Worst that can happen is we end up with bot spam and empty threads.
