@[email protected] 30 minutes. "How many comments say remind me?"
Thank you I was looking for exactly something like this!
Hey, if you did want to build this yourself, a handy feature the Reddit version has is that it replies to the comment confirming the reminder has been set, and includes a link to DM the bot prefilled with information to receive the same reminder. It saves dozens of people needing to make the same "remind me" comment.
that's actually useful, Thank you for sharing the idea!
@horse_battery_staple Here is your reminder!
Huh, @-ing makes a lot of sense. I was about to tell the tale that the
!remindmesyntax is incredibly wasteful, because the bot needs to read every comment to be able to detect that. But yeah, just making it a mention instead resolves that very elegantly.@horse_battery_staple Ok, I will remind you on Sunday Feb 2, 2025 at 1:21 PM UTC.
