meerk40t VS Red-DiscordBot

I vouch for https://github.com/meerk40t/meerk40t A more modern alternative to Whisperer and actively maintained - used on MacOS without issues.

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 self-host a discord music bot for a few servers, I don't know if they have some docker image.
