What is the best way to detect modmail replies with PRAW?
Working with new modmail with PRAW is... painful. I built this script for our mod slack that just checks for unread messages and it works probably 95% of the time? Occasionally the headers are backwards and I just haven't had the gumption to fix it for how little it happens. https://github.com/GrafeasGroup/Bubbles/blob/main/bubbles/commands/modmail.py

October Monthly Meta: Names and a bit of history!
So I started working on a bot that would live in modchat, able to help us with whatever we needed and something that could be extended in the future. (For those interested in the tech side of things, we originally started by building on the errbot platform before eventually building a brand new system from scratch that better fit our needs.) As we built, we needed a name for the new bot; a few different names got thrown around, but we eventually settled on Bubbles.

June Monthly Meta: Development from the other side
Enter Bubbles, our modchat chatbot. Bubbles originally started as a system for doing more complex reminders before morphing into a truly indispensable tool for our team. Among other things, Bubbles directly controls all of the other bots on the server, including herself. Let's say that we push a new feature to GitHub for Blossom -- something that happens fairly regularly -- in the Before Times, we would have to SSH into the server and run a small laundry list of commands just to get the deployment to finish. Instead, we merge in the new code on GitHub and ask Bubbles to handle the process for us directly in Slack.

Creating a flexible Backoffice Tool in a Technical Company using Slack
We did something similar, but doesn't have the permissions checking that your does (and ours is much simpler to deploy -- and it can update itself!) https://github.com/grafeasGroup/bubbles-v2

October Monthly Meta: Names and a bit of history!
Mid-way through 2020, one of the devs noted that dealing with Discord was kind of a pain, but we didn't have a good customizable way to deal with some of the more complex processes we have. They immediately began work on a bot for this purpose, but this time we were prepared: it was a great time to bring Buttercup into the fold. After many months of prototyping and dealing with Discord shenanigans, Buttercup came online and has become a well-loved and often-seen presence on our Discord.
