@CoffeeAddict I could make it run more aggressively, but I figure an hour should be fine. I went with RSS as KBin’s API is very undocumented. Interestingly, I just found out this morning they also support jsonfeed, which could allow me to remove a rss reading dependency.
@Neblib
I see it now! I think once an hour should be fine.
And yeah, I believe ernest (Kbins developer) is still working on the API. The last I heard it should be released/updated soon…ish lol.
Right now, I believe only artemis.camp is running kbins API, but even that version is not quite finished. My understanding is that Artemis uses scraping for rest.
Personally, I am excited for the API to be finished and Artemis to support kbin.social, but these things take time to do right.
Still though, this bot is a great step in the right direction for communicating between our communities on #kbin and #mastodon.
