Using Python, How can I create a bot/script that let’s me re-post a subreddit’s post to Lemmy?

Just wanted to do a simple little project to practice my programming skills.

I just need to know the outline/backbone of things I should know to do this project.

    1. Yeah ok ig
    2. IDE doesnt have anything to do with pip, it can install it sometimes, but for version controll its uterly garbo
    3. IDE is sometimes impossible to catch the variable. ( VS Code, Pycharm )

    You wont change my mind about that pile of trash named python.

    I would cite some cool dude ;)

    Python is an immature language that was populated because the academic computer science business is immature and does not have a definition for “best practices”

      Just use a virtual environment and let your ide manage it. Or a docker container if you’re doing production work.

      Any language may have trouble if you willy-nilly rename things by hand. That’s not specific to python.

        Like said IDEs work 90% of the time not or there are 50 packages with the god damn same name ( mostly malicious )
