Something like the lopen bot for WOB would be nice, but can probably wait until more necessary features are added.

Talk to the admins of the SFFA community here! Have an idea for a new /c/ Community? make a post and offer to mod it and we will see if it fits our vibe. Please remember we are focused on fantasy and science-fiction properties.
yeah that is definitely on my mind. And possibly something like BookBot too that can grab book info from Google Books
How does this Dev Team interact with the official Lemmy repository? Based on the Reddit post where you were directing people to message the Mod team rather than visit the Lemmy GitHub page, somehow I get the impression you guys are working on a forked version of Lemmy rather than contributing to the core repository. Is that accurate?
At the moment we are working with the mainline repo, though the possibility of a hard fork is not off the table depending on features and needs. We are working on some very spoiler-forward features (post blurring for spoilers, flairs, and more) and we do want to feed that back into the main repo if we can. We'd also like to still get updates from them.
The future will depend on how quickly development goes on either side and if we can maintain this or are forced to fork in order to have must-have features for our mods.
We are currently sending pull requests to mainline Lemmy when individual features get done (so far 1 has). If our updates aren't taken we will hard fork to make sure our communities get the spoiler and mod features we need in order to function. Our dev team currently works on features specifically requested by our community mods and members, and is not devoted to working on specific requests from mainline Lemmy, but it's nice when those features overlap.
Sorry for the late reply, I didn't actually get a notification for this comment.
edit: I DID reply to this message. I'm an idiot.
