Who thought that writing an automated account for Bsky would be easy
^^ this muppet right here 🫠
Have spent the past 3 hours getting up to speed on the XRPC calls required to be able to authenticate and then post to Bsky.
Well, once it's done - it's done. But for now: bed. 😴

I really want to know how many people they were expecting, or even hoping, were going to select the "I want the bullshitting chatbot in Discord" options in the survey.
More like "People were being too mean about the AI so we packed up our survey and went home"

Be forewarned- doing this WILL get you muted for a period of time. So if I don’t interact with your posts- this could be one of the reasons.
Don’t repost 50 posts in the course of 10 minutes. No one is entitled to that much space in other people’s feeds.
It’s rude.

Can confirm- there’s an active bug with WSL (Windows subsystem for Linux) that they INTRODUCED! Issue has been open for almost 2 months so far meaning that I can’t use a program properly as required for work.
They don’t care about the end user, has always been about profits.
