Föderation EN Mi 19.02.2025 19:32:48 Some accounts on here are marked as "Automated" or "Bot". This is not a bad sign! These are generally good and useful bots 🙂 These labels are added by the bot's owner to let people know there isn't a human responding to replies. More info at: ➡️ https://fedi.tips/why-are-some-accounts-marked-bot-on-mastodon You can find lots of useful weather bots at https://fedimeteo.com Some bots are interactive, for example @votechess lets people play a collaborative game of chess. @dungeons is another popular interactive bot. |
Föderation EN Mi 19.02.2025 21:37:46 Thanks for the info (as always). Do you know if there's a list of Mastodon bots, hopefully with short descriptions for each? I would definitely follow helpful bots if I knew where to find them. |
