GitHub - bluebbberry/Sidekick: Bot-centered Fediverse app. Users post ONLY through bots. On sign-up, every user chooses a bot (or Sidekick) and can then customize user experience and execute commands with it by posting to the bot. The post prompt is made customizable and elevated in this sense (fedi-app with custom-prompts).
Currently, there are six bots available:
- Larry: Classic text posting: just post text
- Spark: turns all text into uppercase
- Ennui: produces low-effort posts (removes punctuation, makes it lowercase, introduces typos)
- Jea: schedule posts by starting post with a hashtag and the number of minutes to postpone
- Hamlet: adds a random Shakespear quote to the post
- Legion: send out multiple posts by starting the message with a hastag with the number of repeats
You can select three of them and have them then available next to the post-button as a quick-select.
Okay... why?
So basically, Bluesky made custom feeds their rhing, I thought custom posts would be a nifty idea
So wait, this is basically just a Bluesky client that allows you to alter the text you're about to post in some way or another?
Then I don't get why you would call that a bot. The way it's phrased I imagined everyone posting from bot accounts
Alive internet theory
The bots are secretly humans
Maybe so you don't have to look at replies?
Currently not. But it will be added
