I think the title says it all. Basically, when a new comment appears on your targeted post, it sends you a PM about it.

@[email protected]

Usage

  • Subscribe to a post: just mention the bot in the comments or send the link to the bot via PM.
  • Unsubscribe from a post: send PM to the bot with stop text and link of the post like stop https://lemmy.ml/post/1234
  • Unsubscribe completely: Send PM to the bot and add stop text to your message. It will unsubscribe you from all subscriptions.

Note: the bot sends only one notification per post. It waits for the previous notification to be marked as read for new comments.

Made with @[email protected]’s lemmy-bot project 🙏 Tomorrow I will publish the code publicly after adding README and self-hosting guide.

    I didn’t tested non-followed community, but the bot works with mention event instead of comment. But still not sure, I’ll test this one 🙏

    oh, I meant for the actual post watching part, summoning via mention should work without any subscription

      I think to get mentioned comment, it needs to get parent post too. As I said, I need to test it. I can only assume right now.
