YSK: Mastodon bots work here too— there IS a remindme bot already!
YSK: Mastodon bots work here too— there IS a remindme bot already!
Why YSK: I've seen several commenters asking if there were specific bots such as RemindMe
However, there are so many bots already on mastodon that will federate with us! Check out botsin.space, a masto-instance specifically made for hosting bots
Just tag @remindme@mstdn.social
and say the time after (I recommend you not do it on this post unless you have an actual reason though as it could spam their servers)
This is insanely cool... I don't know why it never occurred to me that bots on other platforms could work here due to federation, but it makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing!

7 0 ReplyHow to find the available bots and their instructions on the botsin.space?
7 0 ReplyCool! But does the bot have to know of this community to see mentions? How does fediverse tagging work?
7 0 ReplyUh, actually, how do you do the tagging? It looks like only one user here has managed it, for everyone else, the first '@' is being ignored.
