I’ve created a bot that reposts bapcsalescanada from the subreddit’s RSS feed. It is posted at an interval of 5mins. I am currently testing it on a test community to see if it works as intended; once it works well i will open source the code, then I can move it to post on this community if @RandomDude agrees.
I was previously tempted to make one, but was discouraged by this comment.
RandomDude’s last comment was from a month ago, so you might not get a response if you wait for their approval. You could give it a week or so to see if there’s a response and activate the bot if you don’t get one. The community is dead anyway if nothing changes, so there’s nothing to lose by trying.
Thank you, I think it’s a valuable tool for this sub while it’s still in its infancy compared to the contributor and subscriber count of r/bapcsalescanada.

I think this bot can also do it too - https://lemmy.ca/c/requests@lemmit.online
Maybe work with @RandomDude to see how it can be incorporated into the community?
I sent a DM to him but he hasn’t gotten back to me. Others have suggested me to directly use it here if he doesn’t oppose within a week.
