I've created a bot that reposts bapcsalescanada from the subreddit's RSS feed. It is posted at an interval of 5mins. I am currently testing it on a test community to see if it works as intended; once it works well i will open source the code, then I can move it to post on this community if @RandomDude agrees.
I was previously tempted to make one, but was discouraged by this comment.
RandomDude’s last comment was from a month ago, so you might not get a response if you wait for their approval. You could give it a week or so to see if there’s a response and activate the bot if you don’t get one. The community is dead anyway if nothing changes, so there’s nothing to lose by trying.
Thanks, this makes sense! I will wait a week, I've also sent a DM to RandomDude.
