#MastodonMeUkMeta I've just updated our bot policy, in light of botsin.space shutting down. In short, if you have a personal account here, you're welcome to make well-behaved bot accounts too.
@Floppy Good to know, thanks. What counts as community-relevant? Would @notyourbot1 be acceptable? It's fairly well behaved (posts only, doesn't @ people or hashtags).
@Floppy Oh, it posts exactly once per hour.
@barnoid I've got rid of that vague wording in the rule, now it's just if you have a personal account here. Just a way to let the mods stop entryist bots.
Anyway, @notyourbot1 would absolutely be welcome.
@Floppy Ah great, thanks!
@Floppy so i keep hearing about this -- why is bots in space shutting down?
