YSK: Mastodon bots work here too— there IS a remindme bot already!

Why YSK: I've seen several commenters asking if there were specific bots such as RemindMe

However, there are so many bots already on mastodon that will federate with us! Check out botsin.space, a masto-instance specifically made for hosting bots

Just tag @remindme@mstdn.social and say the time after (I recommend you not do it on this post unless you have an actual reason though as it could spam their servers)

  • Cool! But does the bot have to know of this community to see mentions? How does fediverse tagging work?

    • Adding a user's @user@domain.com in a comment is - to really simplify it - just like sending them an email. The bot get a message that you posted something, it process the message and "emails" you back at that time.

      • Sweet - makes sense. Just tested it on an obscure community on a small instance. Worked!
