requests our way.

Why it is objectively superior
Let’s compare it to a similar discord bot, moiph/ub3r-b0t
Ub3r bot was added to the server 3 years ago, and Simp’o’Matic was only added 3 days ago, yet it had already overtaken it by the number of messages! On average it was used almost every minute, while ub3r bot was only used every few hours, so it’s great for increasing user activity

Getting Up & Running
Make sure you have node
(v14.x
) and yarn
installed
(npm
also possible). Clone the repo, and init submodules:
git submodule update --init --recursive
- Clean up from previous build/install:
yarn clean
- Install dependencies:
yarn install
- Build/Compile files:
yarn build
- Run the bot locally:
yarn start
When starting the bot, you’ll need your secrets set up (API keys etc.).
