Bots
I'd like to attempt writing a Fediverse bot. I have a GoToSocial instance which works fairly well, even if it's still alpha software, and managed to create a bot account and post using a curl command.
I was thinking of using it for posting statuses from my hobbyist off-grid system. Basically, voltage, current, power, and/or energy readings taken off of the charge controller. I already have some scripts in place to do this, so I can read various things over SSH from across my LAN, so it's not that huge of a stretch.
Perhaps it would post once a day, or every hour. I'd probably be the main one to follow it, but it would fun to leave it open for others to as well. One would have to be careful of giving away too much information, but maybe something like daily production would suffice.
I think there's a good bit of potential with bots like this, especially ones you could interact with. That combined with GoToSocial, which has made running a small instance fairly easy (although not entirely trivial) opens a lot of possibilities.
