I’m open to it but wanna confirm with my fellow investors they wanna pay 6,250 sats each? @grayruby @Undisciplined @Aardvark
So where is the service running? Virtual private server? Are there ongoing maintenance costs? Is there a user’s guide? How do posters list their X or Nostr handles?
Yes, that's fine with me. Could we sweeten it with some kind of incentive package, though? Like, maybe the developer gets the referrals generated from this tool.

My package is pretty free if anyone wants to use it as an incentive...
reply
That's far too generous
reply
Not according to my wife.... we may need to sweeten the pot a little bit.

@istealkids, @Undisciplined makes a good point. Looks like your bot is just linking posts without a referral link. How about adding /r/Israel kids to the end of every URL? Then u get 10% of referral rewards as a kickback! And incentivize u to help maintain the bot 🙏

50 sats \ 1 reply \ @noknees 8 Jun
nah it's ok. working for bounties is more than enough for me. i'd rather add /r/realBitcoinDog at the end of the links.
Maybe with "Istealkids", though. No need to bring Israel into this.
Good with it

it's hosted entirely on github and is automated through github actions workflow. you can check it here if the bot is working or not
Are there ongoing maintenance costs?
none for now
Is there a user’s guide? How do posters list their X or Nostr handles?
not a specific user guide but I mentioned how the bot runs in layman's terms here #999588 however the bot mentions users by their username on SN because you know, most people here want to remain anonymous. so i think posting them by their x handles or nostr handles wouldn't be a good thing. moreover, it prioritizes your posts first and then others.

So you’re saying you on purpose don’t have the @ symbol so my corresponding X nym @realBitcoinDog gets tagged?

exactly, i want people to follow that link to reach SN

Cool and I tagged u in rothbard post showing a mishap in “link” SN posts
reply
so, uh, can we finalize this now?
reply
What lightning address did u want to be paid to?
@grayruby @Aardvark @Undisciplined did u have anything else?
Is there a way to mark the bounty as “paid” even if I paid outside SN?

I don't think so. You have 2 ways ig
  1. Pay the bounty here, so I get 70% of 21k which is 14.7k and then pay the rest 10.3k in my wallet
  2. Leave the bounty as it is, pay it directly to the wallet and post a pinned comment "BOUNTY IS PAID TO <username> in <link to that post/comment>" and then post it

And it does posts in “bursts” I think that’s just part of the work flow? Like every hour it’ll just post everything in top so it might post something it already re-posted? That’s probably fine because that’s the point or is it better to avoid that?
X looks like it’ll repost the same post too in back-to-back hours until it hits 17 posts. https://x.com/hnfbot/status/1931414981804691500?s=46&t=AJLfWYMcFR4tAoyfIomXHw
Or looks like it’s all fixed in posted.txt now!
Duplicate Prevention (loadPostedCache/savePostedCache): Tracks posted items in posted.txt to avoid reposting the same content.
reply
It does it in bursts, like per hour as I told you. The bot runs per hour. And it reposts those posts whose stats have changed in that 1 hour. Like if a post has 1 comment an hour ago which changed to 2 comments within the next hour, it will post it otherwise it get blacklisted in posted.txt and will not be posted again. Is that acceptable? Or do I need to change it?
reply
I like that concept. Can it say something like "This post is active ~HealthAndFitness"?
If it's going to post duplicates, maybe we can reduce the posting frequency. I don't think people will follow the account if it feels too spammy.
reply
Reduce posting frequency as like posting every 2 hrs instead of 1 hour?
I think the saying goes "Don't verify. Trust." or something like that... I don't know, just tell me where I'm supposed to send sats..
