Hi There,

I’ve got a mod bot (https://github.com/noenfugler/LemmyModBot) in development that I’ve been using/training in asklemmy with the full knowledge of the other mods and the community owner.

I’ve just started getting an error when issuing GetComments for the asklemmy community (id 3106). I don’t think I made any code changes when this started happening, so I’m wondering if there has been some restriction placed or change made that I’m not aware of that could be causing this response from the API?

Thanks in advance

    The thing is. Then over activitypub its on the OTHERs instance server LW Server doesnt care if they are getting boxed. The others have most of the time less active users too, so they have even less to worry

      Ah, gotcha. Still learning about Activity Pub.

      Sorry for peppering you with questions like this, but wouldn’t requiring bots to grab all comments for the instance impose greater load on the server than letting them just grabbing selected communities?

      I’m not trying to be difficult, just trying to understand so that I can build a well-behaved bot.

        Its easier for the server to just give you “dumb” all comments of the instance. As rather particular 1 community.
