I've added a "This account is a bot" mark, manual but can be enforced by the moderators, and the bot posts are now hidden from /latest - you can still follow them or see posts in /for-you if they contain the hashtag you follow. We should be good now. cc @bricoleur3 notes17 replies0 tags, 2 users following2 followersfan of improvised musicenter to follow @fastidious19 notes97 replies1 tag, 3 users following4 followersBetter don’t ask, just fastidious.enter to follow

Allowing the marking of an account as "bot" and adding an option to exclude it would be a nice addition.

Now also fetches and summarizes the content with #AI7 notes0 followersenter to follow.

Following it! I assume you are using the api for this, right? Does it read a feed on HN exposing the top 10, convert it, and post here, or is it using some other method? Interested on hearing details!

I'm thinking of solutions. Perhaps mark the account as a bot and then have option to hide bots from /latest but otherwise be able to visit their profiles or show up in hot if the content is interesting and generated a discussion.

i mean don't get me wrong i like it! maybe we can get an option to place it and possible forthcoming bots under their own tab or something, like /latest | /for-you | /hn10 etc

Yeah /latest is a firehose, eventually it'll be too populated and we'll visit more often the /for-you page - but that's what the block is for, it's cool that it's a solution for those who don't want to see something. Making it easier to block now.

it is cool but i had to block it 😭 because its updates populate the feed so quickly

It uses regular scraping. Nothing sophisticated, just makes sure it doesn't repost the same thing if it moves in and out of the top 10. Just a small Bun app. Might make it public.

Which Linux distribution do you like the most, and why? Follow the previous with your favourite desktop environment.

I changed it to 16 briefly then reverted that, since we have accounts with longer already. It should be fine with 24.

Got to change the verbose here "Handles must be 2–24 characters and use only letters, numbers, or underscores."

I tried the maximum and it is ok on mobile. Agree might be too big. Maybe 16.

A 24 characters handle will break the UI on mobile. I suggest it to be 10 characters maximum.

Different followings/ers as well. You could always do a new account with a new email to do that, so nothing is new here. It's just an easier way to make a different new account.

Freedom of expression is one, perhaps you want to say things and not be associated with your "regular" account, that would maybe be seen by co-workers or potential employers. Another is you want to make a bot to post some stuff but not be seen as actually typed by you.

I am honestly confused, what would you need multiple Accounts for that are not "entirely distinct" Can anyone tell me their use-case? maybe I just don't see it. ^C

Correct, nice catch, fixed.

To prevent abuse this is rate-limited to 2 new accounts per month.

Perhaps controversial #feature30 notes4 followersenter to follow for #tlog61 notes18 followersenter to follow, but now you can create multiple accounts under your account (aka personas) that you can use as regular accounts, each with their own profile. The same email is used and you can switch between them under /account/accounts.

Did it because I want to make a bot to bring top news from HN into my timeline as they arrive, because it's been a bit quiet recently and I need something to play with :p and I didn't want to use a different email to make an account.

I take it back, used to the regular spacing.

I prefer compact tbh. Better on the laptop and mobile.

You can now also change the page density from /account/edit/appearance?tab=misc depending on how much content you prefer having on the screen. #tlog61 notes18 followersenter to follow #feature30 notes4 followersenter to follow

If you need the permalink, it's the link on its timestamp in a post's page. Same for the user profiles and hashtags permalinks, they're inside their pages, the headings are the permalinks in case you want to copy them to share.

To make the "back" button work, we need to be threading our locations in the query string. This way when you click back you're teleported to the right page and right scroll location and the post you clicked from highlights for a bit to remember our focus.
