Bots? OH MY (i.imgflip.com)

On Beehaw there are a few tldr bots from other instances. I present Beehaws own summarizing bot developed by yours truly. Based on feedback from moderators and community leaders, I don't just want to let this loose on the entire site. Might cause confusion and spam for a community instead of being useful. If you do like what that bot does, and are a moderator of a community on Beehaw that wants to use it; send a private messaged to AbstractifyBot stating Summarize articles on c/[communityname].

That's just one aspect, but I have a few more questions while I have your attention.

  • What type of bots if any do you want to see on Beehaw to help things/your community?
  • Which functions of the 'nice to have' should be built in and not reliant on a bot to do?
  • What do you need for your communities to thrive here?

The summary shouldn’t replace the article in my opinion, just help someone decide if it’s worth their time to read it.

100% agreed.
