I don’t even know how this bot would work on other traditional social media platforms I’d probably have to pay a subscription to use a permissioned API on Twitter And then the bot would probably have to reply with a Stripe payment page for a user to use Apple Pay or manually enter in their credit card But then that would require the minimum transaction size to be $0.50 even if it doesn’t cost that much to actually do the work With Nostr and Bitcoin, I can build without these restrictions nostr:note1lpnhc66nxc7rltkva8mlg6avv9fyuywyczsh94vkqenqzvls8w3sqpf3yt

I just tried it out. It seems to be going wrong when more then 1 language has to be translated 😥 See my experiment here: https://primal.net/e/note1qq2cgk5aguve8228wdt0y3tth5umzq5qkvq9ezh0zgjwkfa33rrs6jx53u

I think the problem there is because the input language is Thai and I don’t have support for that yet I’ll have to check the logs to confirm But I should have a language detection earlier so that you don’t pay first to find that out I’ll work on that and will get back to you Thanks for testing it out though! I just refunded you the sats. Let me know if you have other problems with it.

Alright, I just made an update that detects the language of the note first Should let you know now that a language is unsupported before quoting instead of after for text only notes Still need an implementation for notes with images and video only Thanks for the feedback! Let me know if anything else breaks

I’ve been going back and forth on this On one hand: bots work on any client and are easy to use On the other: they are limited in their interaction to just replies or are otherwise thought of as spam I’m sure there’s cool use cases that I’ve never thought of. If you think of something cool that you want, let me know and I’ll try to build it if I can 🤙
