Hello liberals - we have new mods! @CoffeeAddict and I (@theinspectorst) have taken over as mods of this magazine after the unfortunate disappearance of our previous mod - we tried quite hard to locate the previous mod but they hadn't been active in over a month and we had no way to reach them.

We're going to get to work on sorting out this magazine - e.g. filling out the placeholders in the sidebar. We thought we'd post a regular pinned monthly discussion thread for the time being but if the mag keeps growing then we can move it more frequent.

In the meantime - discuss away!

Yes, but I think only that tweet (post? mast?) would show up. If we wanted to subscribe to mastodo.neoliber.al more generally then someone would have to repost every piece of content from there into kbin.social.

@theinspectorst @CoffeeAddict users that want to post to the magazine microblog from masto can give the hashtag (if I recall correctly), which I think is fine. I think a really nice bot for the integration would be a bot that follows and boosts the NL Kbin's thread posts in the masto server (to hack around Masto not understanding groups).

I think this can work by listening to the magazine's thread RSS feed (or pinging the API) then using the masto api to have a bot user boost that post.

@OtherwiseJunk - since you've written a Masto bot for our instance before, does that make sense? Would you be open to adding it (or taking a PR to add it) to the Deep State Bot scripts or do you think this would be better in a separate bot?

@Neblib seems reasonable on the face of it.

I am 90% sure I put Deepstate up on GitHub, I'll grab the link, but honestly the api is fairly straightforward, only thing that would change is instead of listening to the masto api messages, evaluating them, and optionally replying you'd just be listening to whatever kbin provides and posting to the mastoapi

@OtherwiseJunk @Neblib

One thing you might need to keep in mind is the kbin API is not finished. I am not sure if you will need it to post mastodon to the kbin microblog.

I think @ernest is working on finishing up the API but I have no idea when it will be ready and he has a lot on his plate lol.
