Sorry, it was 15 minutes away from midnight so I waited and then got sidetracked.
I recall you are using iPhone? Can just say to siri "set timer for 12am" and it'll set a timer (not alarm).
I could have set a timer yeah. I just wasnโt sure if I was def on DT duty or not
I posted the thread early so wait and then check if there isn't one already
Are we ever gonna fix the bot? Again saying, super happy to help.
Replying to myself but @[email protected] lemme know if you need support. Game for any lang or stack.
There are a bunch of Lemmy bots on git. I haven't played with any of them. @Deatcat wrote the code for Brisbot. It makes their daily threads neatly. Deadcat hasn't been around for ages, though.
Not doing a code review here despite having feedback. A child could write and support that (said the former child dev).
GAhhHhh, platform of choice? Language of choice? Cloud based or my private local cloud? Does anyone even care about this? I'm happy just playing computer games and hacking away at my stuff.
I feel like Zapier or IFTT could easily do it, no need to write anything fancy. Do they still have free tiers?
It would take nothing fancy to write this on AWS or Azure in the free tiers. It's a few lines of code and be more testable and easy to control and maintain IMO. But open to those suggestions.
