Should mastodon allow bots that post when streams go live
Should mastodon allow bots that post when streams go live
I want to avoid giving any arguments to either side of the debate because I don't want to Poison the well.
The question is should main instances of mastodon allow for bots that see when fediverse streamers go live.
You're viewing a single thread.
Short form social media is basically a free-for-all. Hell, it functions more as a notification service than something like Lemmy.
Give my point of view expressed, a notification from anything is fine, bot or not. As long as the notifications are reasonable and easy for other users to block, sure. Knock yourself out. Have your bot notify us for whatever you want, with the understanding that I could just turn it off at anytime.
I should clarify that the bit is a mastodon account so you'd have to follow it.
Excuse my ignorance of Mastodon then as I have only really used it a few times.
If you follow an account, do you have the option to disable notifications from that account?
Yeah you can mute an account so you get no notification on it
