I just caught up with the hard Arsenal mascot’s antics.
Live thread bot looks good
Can we bring it here? @[email protected]
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.
@[email protected] can we make it happen?
Considering it. Probably will. Problem is it doesn’t seem to have some games, like our game tomorrow.
and also it only posts 15 minutes before the game
That can be made configurable if needed
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.
That does look good…

@[email protected] Am I doing this right? idk why tagging people doesn’t seem to be working for me lol
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…
Bot whitelisted for [email protected]. The bot can now post live threads in this community without requiring elevated privileges.

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.
