    Hey, thanks for replying! Good to know about the subscription ownership. I only ran the discovery portion of the script just to dip my toe in the water, because I feared what would happen if I subscribed. That said, if I use the discovery flag, that’s just exposing the different communities to my instance, right? It’s not going to retrieve any remote content?

    Good to see that storage management is roadmapped. I probably won’t invoke the Subscribe side of this for my bot account until then.

    Understandable about 2FA. I’ll just be smart about my password usage and watch for any updates on that.

    Thanks again!

      It retrieves the last 10 posts and adds the community reference to your local database. It is the same as putting “!community@instance.com” in the search box and clicking search. The retrieval happens whether you look at the results or not.
