        The bot requires approval (whitelisting) from your moderators/admins, not mine. LiveThreadBot will work for any community federated with lemmy.world. Alternatively you can very easily run your own instance of the bot.

            Considering it. Probably will. Problem is it doesn’t seem to have some games, like our game tomorrow.

                  Would it be possible to do up to a day early? Cuz we tend to have pre-match threads so people can discuss like lineups and what they expect and stuff; just not sure if that might be a bit server intensive if it updates live.

          You first tag didn’t direct to lemmy.world so the bot wasn’t notified. When tagging someone on Lemmy you should be able to open their profile by clicking on the tag when done correctly.

            My Lemmy hasn’t worked with my tags in terms of forming links for ages. No idea why.

              It seemed to work this time, the bot responded to you once you tagged it with its instance name.

                Ye but it doesn’t let me click it. Ah well, so long as it works. Thanks! If only ESPN actually listed all our matches…

    Tweets like this are a great engagement farming tactic on football twitter.

    A silly statement made with the intention of being laughed at that gets quote tweeted by a bigger account. The quote tweet gets tens of thousands of likes and the two accounts share the revenue. Justa a thing I observed.

      and you’re giving more engagement to them.
