Red-DiscordBot VS action-doctl

My discord username is crayyy_zee and I've been a discord user since 2019. I used to make discord servers for discord nitro in like 2020 until one day I got too tired of having to do everything manually and decided to make a bot that would ease the process. Learnt python in a week and got to development right after. Since then I've made countless standalone bots and addons for the Red-DiscordBot project. Some of these are open source on my GitHub. I do both per-hour and effort based projects. I am also one of the owners of Melon which is currently in 950 guilds and growing. If any of you wants a discord bot developed you can definitely contact me and we could work up some deal that is affordable to you and comfortable for me.

What about red?

Red is probably the only real long-term option. If you rely on a public bot, that public bot will eventually get kicked off YouTube. Self-hosting a bot means you're simply going to be too obscure for YouTube to care, and if they eventually go after self-hosted bots then at that point that's going to be a news item that's going to cause a lot of anger and pretty much nothing else at all will be working with youtube anymore.

I've been using Red Bot for music, and a few other things, but you have enough functionality to create many complex rules.

I myself self hosted https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot for music

If you are hosting Red Discord Bot. You can install it with instructions below, where [p] = bot's prefix. Some other instructions can be found here

1) why are you late loading fetch? Won't that just hide issues until someone uses the command? https://github.com/EliusHHimel/Slash/blob/main/commands/movie.js#L9 2) re looking for help, why would someone want to contribute to your bot vs something else (ex maybe https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot which has a lot of community and stuff)

If anyone else is here looking for self-hosted docker compatible Discord bots, check out RedBot.

I would highly recommend DigitalOcean (https://www.digitalocean.com/) - they started with a simple VPS offering but have expanded over time. I've been using them since 2015 and they are highly reliable, communicative about any maintenance requiring downtime and transparent about pricing.

Feel free to check them out. If you want I can send you my referral link

DigitalOcean is a cloud infrastructure provider catering to developers, offering scalable virtual servers, storage solutions, networking services, and managed Kubernetes clusters. It simplifies application deployment, management, and scaling through its intuitive user interface and CLI (doctl), allowing developers to efficiently utilize cloud resources for their projects.

In this guide, we'll leverage the strengths of Neon serverless Postgres to establish a PostgREST API on DigitalOcean. With PostgREST, a PostgreSQL database is turned into a RESTful API.

A VM is the original “hosting” product of the cloud era. Over the last 20 years, VM providers have come and gone, as have enterprise virtualization solutions such as VMware. Today you can do this somewhere like OVHcloud, Hetzner or DigitalOcean, which took over the “server” market from the early 2000’s. Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft's Azure also offer VMs, at a less competitive price. In their case, the VMs are either a building block for other services or the value is in the ecosystem. See the section on public cloud below for more.

Every website or web application you have ever come across on the internet contains code deployed there by someone like you (or by aliens; I can't tell the extent of their involvement at this time) and for you as a web/software developer, knowing how to deploy your code to the streets of the internet via a remote server such as cloud servers is an invaluable skill to have today. There are several decent hosting services around that enable you to properly and securely host your website or web app such as Digital Ocean, Heroku, Vercel (mostly for front-end apps) and chief amongst them, Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Hacktoberfest is a month long celebration during October each year. 2023 is the ten year anniversary of the event and I'm excited that something like this still runs. Hacktoberfest is spearheaded by Digital Ocean. This year, ILLA and Appwrite have joined as the presenting partners.

Hacktoberfest, started by DigitalOcean, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year 🥳 It is an annual event that celebrates open-source software development by having developers actively contribute to open-source projects. As of last year alone, there were over 147,000 participants.
