Hi all,
Reddit refugee here. I’ve been following hfy for a number of years and am invested quite heavily in a number of stories. I usually read on mobile on my lunch break, but with rif going and the shocking app it’s replaced with I can no longer do so - just log in via computer every week or so to catch up.
What I am interested in is seeing if any coders here are able to make a bot that pulls ongoing stories from r/hfy when they are updated (first contact, TFTR.etc) and ask the authors if they are ok with it being automatically posted to lemmy as well?
While this is a bit different than what you are asking for, there is an instance focussed on archiving subreddits lemmit online faq post. That said, I like your idea, because it also puts Lemmy out there. So that maybe more will get familiar with it. And asking a poster is thay are fine with it can never hurt.
Yep, if the authors over there are fine with it. I can do the software heavy lifting.
Someone made a bot that scrapes rss feeds and posts to Lemmit.online. Just sub to the subreddit you want.
Let’s see if this link works for me.
