I follow a few sites but can’t filter Lemmy by domain or follow domains, so I want to create a community where a bot reposts my RSS feed to surface the most interesting items from those sources. Which Lemmy instances or communities are bot-friendly, have signups enabled, and permit this kind of mass automated posting?
If you are familiar with Azure there is the project PandaCap by @lizard_socks@lemmy.world which is a self-hosted reader for activity-pub, ATProtocol, RSS/Atom and integrated with DeviantArt and other art sites.
You could run your own.
Running an RSS reader is probably a lot easier though.
I think that the guys at lemmy.dbzer0.com might not be against it
Although, I think one community containing all the feeds you are interested of might be a little bit too personal for a general population instance. It might be better to set up your own instance, with just one community and join it from the account you use
There is also ibbit.at !meta@ibbit.at but with that one, I guess you will have to ask for separate communities per feed and the admin does care about the type of content it would be pulling
Nah not us. While we’re automation friendly to an extent, we’re looking for organic context for posts
Ah, sorry. I remembered you having a bunch of Stable Diffusion communities, so I thought maybe such thing might fit your vibe
Yeah, those are not for automated posting. We expect people to post their best results by hand.
Have you ever verified that?
We don’t have that many posts in them, and I know the primary posters
There is also ibbit.at !meta@ibbit.at but with that one, I guess you will have to ask for separate communities per feed and the admin does care about the type of content it would be pulling
This is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, and I see the sources I wanted are already there, so there’s no need to post my own.
Most instances will let u create Jr own community to do that but u won’t get any human sorting ap lied that way without building a community around it. Most people would be upset if u did it in existing public comms. I run !news_summary@hilariouschaos.com where I do a similar thing but with AI summaries. The bot is foss and takes RSS feeds as the input.
So should I ask the admin first or it’s fine if I just make my own community there and run the bot to post my RSS feed?
I’d stay away from Hilarious Chaos, it’s an offshoot of Exploding Heads and the admin, mods and users are all terrible people.
Saying that without showing any proof seems slanderous.
Slander is spoken and what I’m saying isn’t untrue which means it’s not libel either.
I’d recommend asking the admin imo
