It should be back now! I've migrated it to a new server earlier today since the old one had some issues.

I try doing something productive, like working on developing a new skill, or work on some of my hobby projects. That prevents me from feeling lonely.

Hey, thanks for the message! I've fixed the issue already, which was caused by a regression in one of my changes. To prevent this from happening in the future, I've added unit tests for the same. Sorry for the inconvenience caused!

You're welcome! Thanks for lemmit hehe :)

Oh, I see! I overlooked that you needed an account on the instance to be able to resolve remote communities.

If the Peertube developers find a way to make a way to find the same content there through some metadata, we could support it easily, but currently, there isn't anything.

You can now try sending it a message mentioning communities in the format [!community@instance.tld](/c/community@instance.tld) and it will try joining it :)

Yes, that's somewhat the point. You can see it in action in this comment. Rather than replace, it allows people to see a Piped link too instead of YouTube one.

Here's a really cool YouTube video: https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ (the bot will reply to this)

Currently, it scans all posts that are federated with my Lemmy instance (feddit.rocks), however, there are very few communities that it is scanning currently as there are very few users who have subscribed to communities on my instance.

If more people register on my Lemmy instance and subscribe to more communities, it will scan those communities as well.

I hope more users register on my instance so it can be listed on https://join-lemmy.org/instances too :) I currently lack the 5 active users requirement for that, unfortunately.

~~Alternatively, I could maybe add a way for people to get the bot to subscribe to a community, so people from other instances can add communities to be scanned. 🤔~~ You can now try sending it a message mentioning communities in the format [!community@instance.tld](/c/community@instance.tld) and it will try joining it :)

I will say I saw your bot, triple comment on a post.

Is that in error? If so, could you give me a link to that? I could try fixing that then!

Yes, I am :) I'm not a celebrity haha

Nitter is currently broken due to Elon's draconian rate limits, but it wouldn't be too hard to fork and add support for it! :)
