    I was starting to do this but have run into walls trying to get Docker to work and editing the files to configure it.

    You can find existing bots on github that just need a text file changed with the login details for the bot, where to post, and what to post. You can even tell it to pin a post and how long for.

    Here are two to look at, you can either clone or download the repo to your machine:

    https://github.com/arcuru/lemmy-rss-bot

    https://github.com/SleeplessOne1917/lemmy-bot

    I’ll check which one I downloaded to my computer when I can. It’s part of my whole learning linux/remote desktop/making a server project I tinker with when I have time

        The issues aren’t even with aussie.zone, it’s all me trying to figure out the tech side. On paper it seems straightfoward enough, and once you’ve got it working you can ad YAML to your resume
