Quick update on my progress so far on migrating my personal Mastodon bot projects from botsin.space:
- Following on from my look at self hosting Mastodon, instead of self-hosting I now have my own instance running at https://masto.host/ which will my new home for personal Mastodon related projects
So far I have updated and moved:
- kevinhookebot – over the years this evolved into multiple AWS Lambdas that implemented different parts of functionality. The RNN model text generation Lambda is updated and redeployed and now posting updates every 3 hours at https://mastodon.kevinhooke.com/@kevinhookebot
- The Lambda that listens to mentions ‘@’ the bot is updated and redeployed. to AWS, it checks for mentions every 5 minutes and replies with a random response, or the adventure game replies if you ‘@’ the bot with ‘go north’ or similar command
The other bots that developed over the years (that never got moved to Mastondon with the others) are either still active on X (assuming that Twitter API and credentials are still working) or no longer working, but are on my todo list to update and move soon:
The Zork adventure game bot that was running on botsin.space also needs to be migrated to https://mastodon.kevinhooke.com/home
