The rules for bots - eviltoast
The rules for bots # Bots should be clearly prompted by a command # Bots that always post without human intervention are noisy and are often unwanted. Bots should not act in a community without mods from that community being contacted first # Moderators should not have to chase down the bots being used in their community, it should be opt-in. Just ask, be nice. Bots should minimize the space they take with their messages # A bot’s response should be a small as possible to avoid taking space that could be used by people.

After some discussions in !chat, we came up with the conclusion we should adopt rules surrounding bots.

We’ll ban bots which we are aware of that currently don’t follow these rules and contact their creators. Please report bots that don’t follow these.

    Note - I’m not a beehaw user

    The one here though seems to be producing a large summary instead of just TL;DR

    I kinda prefer this though, IMO condensing an article down into a one or a few sentences could make it difficult to facilitate a “healthy” discussion

    A really miniscule TL;DR seems more likely for a bunch of assumptions to be made based on that alone, and increase the likelihood of users calling each other out for not actually reading the article.

    Oh ☹️ I decreased the font size for comments on my mobile so there was a higher content density but that might not work for you
