It’s another bot that watches for communities that you might want to subscribe to, and posts them so you can subscribe if you want their content.

Thank you! It is monthly active user count (MAU) divided by number of subscribers. That gives a good metric for active communities, with a preference for newish communities with a lot of organic activity.
A few times a day, it takes the highest community by that metric, that has at least 50 subscribers and hasn’t already been posted, and posts it.
Great!
That sounds pretty cool! I have a question, does it only shares Lemmy communities, or does it shares Mbin/Piefed communities too?
I’m pulling data from lemmyverse.net, so it is only Lemmy right now.
I just tried to add Mbin, but it looks like Lemmyverse doesn’t have the same MAU counts for Mbin that it does for Lemmy. I like the idea of adding it, if I can get it. Do you know of a place that summarizes MAU and subscriber count for those platforms?
I realized that it’s pretty easy for the bot to just subscribe me to any good-sized community from an Mbin or Piefed server, and then get MAU counts from the Lemmy API. I’ve done that now. It’s a bit of a hack, but communities from those instances are included in the list as of now.
Thanks!
