Show HN: ShowMeMore, an Archillect-alike taste bot
- polm23 10y agoArchillect is a popular Twitter bot that posts a certain kind of image. The code isn't open source, but the developer has described in general terms how it works sometimes. https://twitter.com/archillect https://twitter.com/archillect The basic idea is it starts with a list of tags, and then uses Twitter responses (likes/RTs) and source metadata to decide what to post next. Not a complex idea, but I haven't seen anyone else do it. ShowMeMore started as The Laser Syriacum, a bot I knocked together on similar principles to Archillect, and has been used in a few other bots. https://twitter.com/lasersyriacum https://twitter.com/lasersyriacum https://twitter.com/showmepixels https://twitter.com/showmepixels https://twitter.com/notarchillect https://twitter.com/notarchillect https://twitter.com/nicejobgoodwork https://twitter.com/nicejobgoodwork You can read about my motivations here: https://www.dampfkraft.com/by-id/2931e31b.html#The-Laser-Syriacum https://www.dampfkraft.com/by-id/2931e31b.html#The-Laser-Syr...
