Cool timing, I'm just putting the finishing touches on a new bot

(Running 12+ feeds so far)

Will post details over the weekend

[Rich]

Right then, here we go

I've setup "The Diaspora Pi Bot" and I'm currently taking requests for RSS feeds too as I've just ported this over to a brand new QUAD CORE(!) Raspberry Pi so it's able to handle a load more feeds now. Setup a page at https://feeds.joindiaspora.co.uk but I could do with a proper page / site really, one where people can post their requests (bit like PaperboD used to) for feeds and where it also displays the current bots.

Anyway, here are my current Pi-powered bots:

BBC Technology News - bbctechnews@joindiaspora.co.uk

Gran Turismo - granturismo@joindiaspora.co.uk

Lifehacker - lifehacker@joindiaspora.co.uk

PlayStation - playstation@joindiaspora.co.uk

Raspberry Pi - raspberrypi@joindiaspora.co.uk

SWBroadband Status - swbroadband@joindiaspora.co.uk

TechCrunch - techcrunch@joindiaspora.co.uk

TheRegister - theregister@joindiaspora.co.uk

TorrentFreak - torrentfreak@joindiaspora.co.uk

UFC - ufc@joindiaspora.co.uk

ALL of my Raspberry Pi bots post under the hashtag #TheDiasporaPiBot so you can find new ones as I add them.

I've got a few more to add, I'll update this thread as and when

Cool thread man!

[Rich]

This is a good one too (although this isn't one of my bots):

XKCD (inofficial) - xkcd@pod.geraspora.de

[Mike]

Hashtag #securitynews - who@pod.readme.is Experimental bot, trying to build a good quality feed. Running on a Pi2

Requests are welcome!

[Rich]

MediaGoblin -- mediagoblin@joindiaspora.com

That's not a bot @aj_ that's their actual account

[Rich]

Two more PiBots added last night:

Mashable - mashable@joindiaspora.co.uk

Diaspora Wiki Changes - diasaporawikichanges@joindiaspora.co.uk

[Hellion]

Hi! This is great news for people who used to follow a lot of RSS feeds via PaperboD.

So are you still taking requests for a couple of RSS feeds? I have a few candidates. And another question: can some of these RSS feeds nomenees be in another languaje (spanish, in this case)?

[Rich]

Hey @Hellion.

Yeah, sure thing, I have spare capacity, let me know which feeds you want adding.

In any language you like

[Hellion]

Great!

Just this two:

https://www.blabbermouth.net/feed.rss (From a site of Hard Rock/Metal news - Blabbermouth.net)
https://feeds.feedburner.com/fayerwayer (Which is a great source of tech/internet news in spanish - Fayerwayer [https://www.fayerwayer.com/])

Thank you very much for this effort!

[Rich]

I'll get these done in the next few days and reply back here when ready

[Hellion]

Thank you very much, again!

[Rich]

from now on only profiles that fail the CAPTCHA tests go no the list

Heh

So, @aj_, how would you feel if we edited the (your) first post on this topic and we keep updating that first post with a current list? (so all the bots appear in the first post of this thread)

[aj_]

absolutely feel free to even replace the whole post with a new one if you like

[Rich]

@aj_ ok, mate, will do, thanks!
