GitHub - Asudox/lemmy-wikibot-rs: A lemmy bot written in Rust to send summaries of wikipedia articles mentioned in user comments (github.com)

I made this bot so that users who want to provide a quick summary of the wikipedia article they linked to in their comment can do so just by including a mention of the bot in their comment, and the bot will reply to the comment with the summary.

Currently multiple wikipedia links are not supported.

The way you mentioned the bot is wrong. Try @[email protected]

Sorry, I could not get the wikipedia summary for the wikipedia link mentioned in your comment.

@Asudox

Mention work OK
Thought bot will show up on Kbin but didn't
There is some issues that some users aren't showing up on kbin.social but wanted to test it anyway.

Another user also using kbin got it to work though. Interesting.

Might be a federation issue. Could be related to LW still being on v18.5.0
