I made a flag waver bot for this community.
call it with !wave in the comments or post body.
EDIT: there seems to be a bug in the bot library i’m using and it will reply anywhere on lemmy as long as I am subscribed to the community. I may shut the bot down until this is fixed to prevent spam.
EDIT2: It should be working now, I added a workaround for the library bug and opened a github issue.
Update: I have added body text waving and waving of multiple links in a post. Also waving links in comments.
Example (see comments):
test image
another link
Update 2: It’s open source now!!
github
Update3: lemmy.world is not federating with my instance for some reason, I can make comments but none of your comments are reaching my instance and the bot is not responding.
I’ve run some tests and the issue here is lemmy.world, I can see a post I made to !vexillologyjerk@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz but not !vexillology@lemmy.world the issue seems to be intermittent starting and stopping throughout the day, needless to say there isn’t anything I can do about this, sorry.
It might be because I’m still on 0.17.4 but my server won’t run 0.18.0 and the bot won’t run on that version. nvm lemmy.world is also on 0.17.4, I have not idea what this issue is
!wave
Sorry! the post dosn’t look like an image!
If that is incorrect please message @thomas@lemmy.douwes.co.ukit seems to have a bug right now where it replies in any community. Got to fix that
Can you keep it for !vexillologyjerk@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz though pls? :D
should be fixed now !wave
I don’t currently support waving comments, Maybe soon!
Thats one of the ones it’s supposed to work on lol
It’s just not supposed to wave peoples carpeted bathtubs

This is wonderful news! Thanks for your work!
It’s still a work in progress, It can only do plain links so far, no imgur weirdness. It also can’t wave comment links right now.
I should also probably change the CORS proxy to something that isn’t free.
I’ll open source it when I’ve cleaned the code up a bit.
Oh and I should probably move it into the cloud, it’s just running on my PC right now lol
