Apollo is limited to five events, which I’ve exhausted for FFXIV community events. Now I just want a reminder to bump my Disboard and FFXIV Community Finder, since I always forget. I’ve tried a bunch of bots to no avail, and I keep coming back every once in a while to try to find a solution again.
I don’t need a million billion paid subscriptions in my life, especially for Discord bots for one server. Wish I could just stick with Dyno and Ser Aymeric for everything, yeah? I’ll pay premium for Aymeric for birthdays and for monthly recurring events/reminders features, because Aymeric and its devs deserve it.
Edit: Also I refuse to rely on Google Calendar, so that’s a good chunk of bots I refuse to use.
I don’t know if this helps, but for discord I made an ITTT bot that looks for events set up in a Google calendar, and based on some criteria pulls the data from those events to paste into discord.
For example, I have a recurring bi-weekly FFXIV event for my group, and every-other Monday it posts a little message reminder in our FFXIV channel.
It’s not a simple plug-and-play setup, but once I got it working it’s been going for a couple years. I think ITTT lets you set up three free routines.
I really hate the idea of relying on Google Calendar, so that’s a chunk of bots I don’t use. I also hate complicated setups. It makes me not want to go back and fix or change things.
Carl Bot lets you setup scheduled messages to run once per day, week,month, etc. does that work for you?
If all else fails, do some JavaScript or Python tutorials and learn to make one yourself.
I don’t remember what turned me away from CarlBot, but I don’t really have time to learn programming.
