RE: https://bots.ambience.sk/@horrormovies/72af0b5f-f95c-432a-8650-adb9f4b0675a Pretty bad poster, don't you think?

RE: https://bots.ambience.sk/@drinksnomore/270b7000-c5a8-4415-9fd1-a873bd376f83 Follow Drinks No More for discontinued soft drinks / sodas. Retro flavors that you remember but are not coming back.

RE: https://bots.ambience.sk/@lapl/46a94228-f731-45c7-a777-659e35925bd2 This collection of old travel posters is cute.

I have added relays to ActivityPub (Mastodon) bots: https://github.com/nekromoff/mastodon-bots #php #webdev #bots #bot #webdevelopment #github #activitypub #mastodon

@drinksnomore is my new bot. For that retro, nostalgia soft drink flavors that have been forgotten. Maybe you loved one of those sodas, but they stopped making it? This is the bot for you, then! #drinks #drink #soda #flavor #color #discontinued #history #softdrink #softdrinks #retro #nostalgia

Anyone here thinking of building a few Fediverse bots? I would be interested to hear about them. And this might be useful to you: https://github.com/nekromoff/mastodon-bots #fediverse #activitypub #bot #bots #mastodon #mastoadmin #fedihelp

Quite sad that ActivityPub community web like https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks does not verify new users quickly, so they can contribute.. 4+ days and counting... Maybe no moderators, maybe no time, maybe no interest. Well, maybe do not run a discussion forum, if you are unwilling to run it […]

My newest bot about Game of Life invented by John Conway: https://bots.ambience.sk/@gameoflife As usual with my other bots, it will post twice a day. Follow and enjoy crazy GIF patterns. #games #gameoflife #old #history #retrocomputing #retrogaming #retro #image #screenshots #gif #meme

Introducing: @wikipediatoday Wikipedia Today Bot Posting featured picture of the day from Wikimedia Commons. Enjoy. BTW, this is the proof of how fast you can spin a bot using my tool. It took me maybe 30 minutes from idea to first post on Fediverse. Mos of that time I spent testing Wikipedia […]

I have released v1.0 of ActivityPub Bots that are Mastodon-compatible: https://github.com/nekromoff/mastodon-bots #mastodon #activitypub #webdev #webdevelopment #php #app #tool #opensource How about you celebrate by launching one?! I will click follow!

That has escalated quickly... Spotify artists for "happy rave". #fail #thedailywtf #wtf

OK, I have fixed the both historical age bots: @lapl and @cpl Now they will show proper random images. #losangeles #chicago #usa

I have now fixed @cpl so it links correctly to the original item as well as posts random image from multiple collections. I have identified a bug, when CPL Digital Collections can not paginate beyond 200 pages. No way around it.

Hey guys, you read my troubles with developing an ActivityPub / Mastodon multibot instance yesterday? Well, I got it working in the end and have already migrate four bots and added another two to it. And here is the code that I open source now: https://github.com/nekromoff/mastodon-bots […]

RE: https://bots.ambience.sk/@dikda/b8c6552c-aa69-448a-ad80-95c38fe0a6e6 Test of post quoting.

RE: https://bots.ambience.sk/@dikda/76d7d0b8-4362-48e6-bf68-d3a4356c9dd9 OK, quoting finally works! #webdev #mastodon #bot #bots #mastoadmin #php

On the more positive note: Success, I guess? But I think something messed up with quoting, can you confirm this post is not quotable? https://bots.ambience.sk/@dikda/7d79e4ed-8d6a-4918-a6f8-4868514527e9 #mastodon #webdev #php

Thanks, Mastodon. Out of 225 followers, only 150 have been properly moved. beware, that Mastodon migrations sucks as others have evidenced in past. #mastodon #migration #fail #mastoadmin #mastolivre #masto

Some progress on having my own bots instance as manual registration at mastodon.social is pain. I clearly have a discoverable bot that is able to follow... Need to test posting and other features. #bots #mastodon #mastoadmin #masto #webdev #php

State of frontend development edition 2026: "The dialog's animation delay is likely causing the focus to happen before the textarea is mounted. Let me use a longer delay:" FML, that's why I hate workign with Javascript frameworks. #fml

Thinking about creating also Los Angeles and Chicago bots posting images from public libraries' digital collections. But manual setup via mastodon.social is pain, so probably I will just use @Edent Mastodon bot script. See also @nypl, @sfpl, @movieposters and @dikda #bots

I am glad I had decided to buy a QNAP NAS at some point, because their continuous security advisories are top notch. Professional, providing patches, good support. Also, WD Red drives were probably cheaper than they are today. #nas #qnap #storage

RE: https://stefanbohacek.online/@trainstations/116242518238785665 @stefan I have noticed that Japan and Australia are predominant here. Is it because the bot posts at the set time, so randomness is not so random? I have tried to solve it by including further randomness via crypto algo, but I […]
