I have migrated my ActivityPub and Mastodon-compatible bots to use a queue and parallel workers. Synchronized requests were taking too long for many bots with many followers.
Upgrade now if you use my bot software:

I just started working on my FUUUUCK bot. It'll be like scream bot, but for FUUUUCK!
It doesn't do anything, yet. I haven't even started coding, just created the account. You're free to follow it, but keep in mind that it might not do anything for a while, and might act strangely when it does. I'll make another announcement when I have things working more or less correctly.

Found that my NAS had updated its Python version a couple of notches since my #mastoBots had last run, and in doing so it had lost some libraries. The underlying Linux OS had been a nice spot to run low-effort scripts in an always-on context.
My random observation bot @randotoot is again working. So there's that.
Further absorbing my old code and hoping to resurrect another my word defining bot which relies on a NYTimes API which may have booted my access by now.

Delving into old toot-bot code over breakfast, and realizing I had forgotten a lot of what I was last up to.
Turns out I'd already moved one project to a non bots.in.space instance and it was running fine until we moved. It stopped on moving day when I tore down our network and reconfig'd in the new place. ha! 😆
Brain was very full for several months thereafter.
I'll get that one working again, if I can understand my old notes. Should be a CRONTAB that was firing it off each day.

What instances are people using to host mastodon bots? I'm obviously trying to be respectful of instances, so I don't want to pick an instance without checking what everyone else is using. Now botsin.space is dead, I'm out of ideas and Googl-ai ain't helping me.

Two things:
1. Has anyone written a thread composer app for Mastodon? I need that. I don't write a lot of threads, but when I do I really miss old Twitter's thread composer.
2. I have to admit that I am very popular with the bots of Mastodon. It seems like a lot of my well hashtagged posts get immediate pings but they're always from robots. Is that happening to everybody?

So far @AltTextHealthCheck is the only bot I have built that hasn't really ever broken. And it almost has 500 followers!
feels like a true success to me!

Im looking for more bots like @HourlyOtters, that post pictures of various animals on regular intervals.
I'm up for anything, turtles, birds, komodo dragons, whatever.
Even justvpixelfed accoubts of animal pictures would be cool (thanks, activitypub!)

Speaking of bots ...
Cheap Bots, Toot Sweet! (free):
"This site will help you make a Mastobot! They're easy to make and free (for you) to run."

(why are we talking about bots? Twitter says it is closing their API except for paid users beginning Feb 9, which affects a lot more things than shitty troll accounts, news updates, or just fun stuff. Many civic services, alerts, weather warnings, transport, traffic, academic accounts, research, museums, schools, etc. will be out of luck, as well as (probably?) sites that use Twitter sign-in or authentication for any reason.)
