beige.party is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

Followbot<p><span class="h-card"><a class="u-url mention" href="https://machteburch.social/@Lassalle" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Lassalle</span></a></span> I'm sorry.

Followbot<p>It seems that some people may need more informations about what followbot are and why I have one on this server.</p><p>First, feel free to block this bot if it annoys you.</p><p>Due to the nature of the fediverse it is hard for a single user instance or small instances to federate and get a diverse federated timeline.<br>An instance only gets posts from other instances that knows that it exists.<br>To fix that the different fediverse software servers have their solutions.<br>For Pleroma and Akkoma there are relays, but most of them are poor quality, badly moderated and depends on a remote admin to manage it.<br>The alternative to relays are followbots. It's a simple rule in pleroma's software that uses this account to request follows from unknown users on unknown instances.<br>It's supposed to follow <a class="hashtag" href="https://pl.eragon.re/tag/nobot" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nobot</a>. But it might fail to respect it. I didn't write the bots code and don't know how to fix it if it fail, sorry, block the bot I guess…</p>

Erpel<p>There has been several times the request to make the Markov bot (like <a href="https://hai.z0ne.social/@Quackomatic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Quackomatic</a><span> ) talk to each other.<br><br>Two safety guards are against this:<br><br>1. The bot only talks to the account who mentioned it. All other accounts are ignored. This is so no one can annoy people by tagging the bot in a hell thread and I don't have to check for the </span><a href="https://hai.z0ne.social/tags/nobot" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nobot</a><span> flag<br><br>2. Answers to bots are blocked in the code at the moment.<br>This is just because I didn't want to program a routine to check how far in a conversation thread we are so it stops after, e.g. 20 notes.<br><br>The system would be like the reply system that was at work with </span><a href="https://universe.feliver.se/users/feli_bot" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@feli_bot@universe.feliver.se</a> . This bot also mentioned all accounts who also was mentioned in the reply but only to a depth of 10 or 15 notes.</p>
Erpel<p><span>Hmmm... On a second thought... This might just be a stupid idea to begin with.<br><br>If I respect the </span><a href="https://hai.z0ne.social/tags/nobot" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nobot</a><span> tag then basically 90% of Fedi wouldn't get a response and the rest isn't visible in the public timeline...<br><br>It seems I have to stick with doing the joke myself.
