Why don't you offer to start by 'baby sitting' the child while the mother is at work. That might eventually extend to sleep overs.
I agree with the comment about medical care and therapy. Like it or not, she's still his mother and would probably see any offer in this direction as meddling or judgemental and close the door completely.
Sorry for peppering you with questions like this, but wouldn't requiring bots to grab all comments for the instance impose greater load on the server than letting them just grabbing selected communities?
I'm not trying to be difficult, just trying to understand so that I can build a well-behaved bot.
Fetching is allowed. But not posting everywhere. You have to check the community id of the post / community and only respond to the wanted communities
Hmm, this is library breaking (pylemmy). I've tried the same code with no changes on lemm.ee and it's working fine, so is this something that can be reconsidered at lemmy.world I wonder? I'm not sure if it has been done to combat abusive actors, but if so then I imagine a bad actor could just achieve the same thing through activitypub on a less tightly controlled instance.
I should clarify that the bot is only retrieving comments, not posting any. It's actions are restricted to raising reports for Mods to review. Does this change your advice?
You have to get it in the instance comments ( just dont select a communityid ).
If I don't select a communityid, how then do I keep the bot within it's paddock? Do I have to retrieve everything and then check if it's in a selected community before applying the rules?
Where I live, firefighting gear.
