Knowing Presence of Awareness
The Witscord Mastodon bot "Knowing Presence of Awareness" (aka "masto bot") posts messages from Witscord to an account at https://mas.to/@witscord.
History
Raz got banned and we wanted to talk to him. Thus the masto bot was born.
Emoji reactions
Five elephant (🐘) reactions to a message, including a reaction by the original user who posted the message, posts the message to Mastodon. If the message is a link to another post on the fediverse, the bot will boost the original post instead of just posting a URL to it.
Every mammoth (🦣) reaction subtracts one from the elephant count. This is to prevent hiveminding and bad posts.
Five ox (🐂) reactions to a message does nothing of note.
