not a total failure though! better than when i started at least

and note: NOT my goal to automate everything. I am not my bot!!

Definitely needed some tooling though to get me past the mental and creative barrier to start though

foray into auto-curation (follow, unfollow, block): on hold 🛑
- not enough vibe testing, tons of spam...

foray into auto-content: pending 👀
- my voice, various topics, multiple possible narratives, manual review/edit before scheduling... lets see!

you guys are honestly too kind.

"I see the automation has restarted itself and is actively sending follows!" <- what??

If it keeps happening now I think its time I take my lessons and just straight delete the app. Automation can work, uncontrolled invisible spam does not.

Yeah theres a lot of "go you, everything is fine" language in the assistant. Early on I asked for it to write "comprehensive sure-fire test suite to ensure duplicate prevention"; it picked up on that and continued to tell me (thru multiple silent failures) that this solution is now "sure fire" haha

😭😭😭 my reputation is RUINED! 😅

And once again..... "fixed"... Please do let me know if you get another notification!!

sorry to bug you guys with bug reporting.. this just started yesterday or "I" have been bothering you for the last week?

Man what a joke! After @empathy.systems said it was still happening I tried to do a hard stop, get protections in place, then restarted (yesterday). @tomcoates.bsky.social you've been getting notifications most days for the whole last week (while replit assured me everything was in a "hard stop")?

Nuts indeed. Still, should have put some guidelines in place… live and learn

Gross.. so sorry about that. Realized the Bluesky API call doesn't care if you're already being followed, it just keeps trying to follow and notifying you on every attempt.

Should be fixed now. Amateur hour! Thanks for letting me know
