        It can’t find everything every time. Most of the time it works, but you haven’t actually used it much.

          I just really wish it would work inside the body. I’m a perfectionist like that.

            Body mentions work now. Lemmy doesn’t notify for body mentions, so I had to make it check every post for a mention, but it works.

            You can also just leave the body blank to trigger it. Obviously it can’t edit the body.

            If you want that you’d have to run my entire posting tool and have it create the whole post for you.

                Funny you should comment just now. I chose to make it work via a matrix chatbot so you can actually use it via phone or desktop just the same. It just needs to run on a machine somewhere.

                That’ll let you get it up and running provided you know how to set up python and run a .py file.

                Looking into making it an executable but that doesn’t really play nice with some of the hackier solutions I employed in writing it.

                Might have to ditch/redo some features to make it work.

                Edit: Got a working Linux executable, working on windows now.

                  I finally sat down to get this working, might put out an PR soon with some attempts at trying to add hints for people who have dumb problems like me. I got stuck on the room name for matrix, thinking that I could use a local address when I should have just copy-pasted from the log when the bot joined.
