Is there a bot or service I can use to have an RSS feed auto-post to a Lemmy community that I moderate? (lemmy.ml)

I moderate a community and there are official sources of information that I would like auto-posted when they release. Specifically blogs posts and YouTube videos.

I've looked at things like mastofeed and ifttt which I can get working for mastodon, but tweaking those to then post from mastodon to my community leads to clunky posts with the URL not registering properly or being in the title and not the URL field. It also puts @community in the title for every post.

Is there anything dedicated for Lemmy out there yet?

Im currently making a bot for the programming.dev godot community that posts things from rss feeds. Still under construction but I can do a reply here when its done (source will be available on github)

These are the bots currently listed on Github. https://github.com/topics/lemmy-bot They don't specifically suit your needs, but you may be able to modify them and make it work.
