has anyone made a reminder bot for Lemmy? (lemmy.ca)

Greetings,

sometimes I want to read new comments on a particular post but I don't want to check it every hour to see new comments. It would be nice if I can just say "!remind 5h" so that I get a reminder to checkout a specific post which would have new comments after 5 hour.

I am thinking about making it myself in Rust, but if there is already a bot here and I don't know, please tell me.

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!
