Actually, I forgot that posts from Mastodon get here, so please use this: https://activitypub.space/topic/548/activitypub-question-is-it-ok-to-run-pruning-of-dead-inboxes-target-nodes-for-delivery-after-grace-period-of-e.g.-7-days-when-transport-failures-timeout-ssl-dns-redirect-loop-unresolvable-host-400-404-410-all-5xx-occur-repeatedly

@julian I think the closest one is Stefan's: https://github.com/botwiki/fediverse-bot

But most of these are written in Javascript, I wanted a PHP one so any cheap shared hosting will do (until bots get very popular and then hosting upgrade will be likely required).

Also found this one: https://github.com/dknauss/fedibots (started around similar time)

This one requires command line to run it and does not have public pages. But good that people make these. I was missing simple app to run my bot, so I made it ;-)

I have seen that as well. I am sure Typescript/JS has its fanbase. I prefer PHP - hence my tool.

Yeah, going over features over similar apps, so I can learn and get inspired :-) I added relays yesterday as those (as I have learned) help to spread content. I thought that hashtags federate globally, but they don't.

I ended up blocking the instance.

Works for me. So, not sure why.
