Oh man, this bums me out.
Don’t worry, the bot will still respond and it will get 10,000 upvotes from other bots and replies like “grond” and “15 years is 7889400 minutes” and “pass me the breastplate stretcher!” and the one real person left on reddit will smile and think “I love being part of such a large and thriving online community”.
You were a good bot, RemindMe. I want you to remember that.
!RemindMe to think of you. Good bot.
I used to get a notification every year for some dude who had posted on reddit that he was alone on his birthday one year. He stopped replying several years ago, but I still messaged him each year at the prompt of remindme. So that’s also a use case.
This is the best showerthought I’ve seen in ages.
I think I’m going to like it here!
remind me 5 years
I was here in the beginning
It’s about time that people understood that “Everything on the internet lasts forever” is a falsehood formed from a Web 2.0 mindset. Now those big Web 2.0 sites everyone thought would dominate the internet forever are dying, and the only thing saving what was on those websites (the internet archive) is being constantly sued by greedy publishers.
Probably one of the few useful bots ever added to Reddit.
We didn’t need a million and one spelling, grammar and whatever other stupid bots the place got infected with. Hopefully Lemmy doesn’t end up with them either.
Personally, I think the grammar bots fit right into Reddit culture.
Everyone is a smarty-pants on Reddit!
I do hope that people respect the instance hosts and go easy on the trivial bots when it comes to Lemmy though.
