As previously mentioned in the first attempt, I spoke to Demigrodrick, the instance admin of Lemmy.zip, about how their bot processes reddit posts and might have found a solution. They have put in a lot of work to get their instance bot to work on here as I originally envisioned it: not only linking to reddit posts but rather creating proper image posts including the post’s body. Now, there seem to be some issues with how these posts are displayed on the numerous Lemmy apps, specifically on Jerboa where it’s just linking to the original post.

I’d like to ask of you to be patient with me/us (the SoulsFetchBot) for the time being since this is just an early implementation that can be iterated upon should any of you find something missing or not working as you’d like the bot to.

Do feel free to reach out and report any issues - I want to get this working!

Edit: The issue seems to have been resolved. The update should roll out soon-ish

Edit 2: Videos cannot be pulled by the bot properly via RSS, so I will just delete video posts whenever I see them for the time being
