https://bluehook.astrid.place/ I have made a tool to allow y'all to build Bluesky bots on the edge! The tool consumes the firehose for you, and then sends the response over HTTP

I agree that a bot flag would be nice and the ability to scope things that bots handle would be awesome, but a) I have no ties to Bluesky so can't make bot users b) good bots are really helpful to a lot of users c) bad bots are unlikely to use this, there are other ways if you were to spam en masse
Yep! So the reason I made it was that I plan to build a bot (will say more about it in the futrure) that listens to mentions of itself and then handles things based on that. The codebase will be in Next, but I hit a brick wall when it comes to like "do I need another thing on all the time to 1/2
Wow. I'm so far out of programming now, I can no longer keep up with the terminology now.
Firehouse, edge, webhooks.... yeah, I'm old.
I learned html, barely css... and I'm fully cooked.
Yes, there are many new terms & programming languages. But there are many resources out there to learn, if you're so inclined. This resource below is pretty cool. It has kits to build various things such as bots & walks you through learning it. https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-x
