Discussion Thread
I think I could significantly speed up User Pinger by using async PRAW to send all the ping messages concurrently but I don't really understand how to embed an asynchronous task within a larger synchronous function
Yeah, in this case probably the only reason I didn't get hacked was because the example config file I have publicly online doesn't include the mistake I made
It was the result of people saying that they had a difficult time clicking on the links before. I can change it any time, because now the bot uses proper text templating 😌
That's what I'm thinking. I already have the API grabbing data from Reddit to determine whether someone is a mod, so it wouldn't be much additional work to return the comments of a thread as a JSON object
For user_pinger_2 I define a list of "recoverable errors" and have the bot run in a while True loop that restarts if it throws one of those. See the bottom of this file. Those are Reddit-side errors, but you could presumably add specific client side ones if you know which are safe

I made a history page for User Pinger
The code is available on GitHub here https://github.com/neoliberal/user_pinger_2/

[POLL] Should r/seventeen join the blackout on June 12-14th in protest of Reddit’s changes to their API pricing?
As an average user, you may not notice much difference in your browsing experience. For those using external moderation or accessibility tools, though Reddit has announced that tools/apps focusing on accessibility and moderation will not be negatively affected by the pricing changes, many of these tools are already provided by third-party apps that will be affected. Sites such as Unddit (for tracking post/comment edit history), which run on APIs like Pushshift, that are not quite covered under the vague criteria of being “legal, non-commercial, and helpful to mods,” are likely to no longer work as intended going forward.

Pushshift also supports other query parameters, such as specifying a time range using 'before' and 'after' or sorting the results by 'score', 'num_comments', etc. You can find the full list of query parameters in the Pushshift documentation: https://github.com/pushshift/api

I am scared of Unddit, Reveddit, and other clones. They violate all rights to privacy and save people's content without any consent process at all. There is no recourse to delete your data.
The thing to look at is Pusshift: https://github.com/pushshift/api

Happy cake day
Rule 3 says I can't link directly, but I can link to this. Pushshift is absolutely amazing for things like this. Just enter a url like http://api.pushshift.io/reddit/search/comment?q="\[START OF COMMENT TEXT]" and you should be able to find it quite easily.

Discussion Thread
In the meantime, the third party tool Pushshift can accomplish pretty much the same thing, just with some effort. It's a database of (almost) every comment and submission on Reddit, and you can filter the results based on things like the author and keywords in the body. You can write the queries yourself, but it's much easier to just use a webpage designed to make it easy. For example, if you wanted to find old KITTY pings, you could just enter "groupbot" in the author field, and "KITTY" in the "search term" of https://camas.unddit.com/. The result is this:
