MODERATORS
I requested one for r/soccer. The community here is small and I don't have the time to spend all day on Twitter looking for the latest news to post it while it grows. So this bot fetches latest posts from there and I crosspost to a Lemmy community of real users on the rare occasion that it's interesting to me. The bot lives in its own instance so it isn't spamming any real user community.
For news-oriented communities, I understand using a bot, at least until you build a userbase.
