Content management bots would be great. A feature I desperately need right now is actually automatic cross-posting. I host my community on multiple instances and post actively to others. Linking posts together to have better reach and having multiple backups in case of one instance going down is incredibly important to Lemmy's continued growth and survival. Lemmy itself doesn't support a lot of redundancy features, so it'd be nice to automate the process a bit. A start would be a script that logs into an account and cross-posts a specified post to multiple communities in other instances. It'd also be nice to have it append the original instance at the end, so that people can follow for discussion.
