Distribubot alpha, a gift from Steem Engine

over 5 years ago (Edited)

Steem Engine is happy to announce that we've made you a bot and we've opensourced it. We call it Distribubot! We modeled it after the dramabot from @whatsup et al. Now anyone with a little bit of dev skills can run their own distribubot.

https://github.com/steem-engine-exchange/distribubot

The repo is there. Sorry there aren't a lot of instructions yet, but we'll keep adding to that page.

What's the benefit?

Well, if you don't have 3100 ENG lying around to make a tribe you can start a bot with 100 eng and this opensource bot to start distributing your token. If it gets any traction maybe you can upgrade it to a tribe. Or you're just having fun. That works too.

What's it cost?

Oh silly billy, it's free, I mean you gotta host a server for it, but the server requirements are pretty small. Anyway, everyone is welcome to use this for free. I hope you do cool stuff with it.

Hey dickhead I'm not a developer how do you expect me to use this?

Well, hang on friend, that's a little aggressive, but yes we know we have to get more instructions out there for people. As of right now it's a little rough for non techies to run this, but we'll improve that over time. We work on the model of launch and improve rather than wait for perfection. So, give us some breathing room, please don't call me a dickhead, and we'll get you some easy instructions in the coming weeks.

I'd like to contribute because this will bring me joy!

Send monies to @holger80. He made it (Steem-Engine paid him). Oh, that kind of contribute. Yeah, if you can think of sweet features that make life better for all steemians please feel free to make some PRs.

I'm a dev and I have questions

Ask holger. If those questions seem pertinent to everyone encourage the answers to get into the github page.

Where do I find holger80?

But you should probably put the questions in discord rather than ask him directly. That way everyone can benefit from the answers.

But he's sleeping right now. He's in europe, jeez, give the guy a break.

Happy token distributing!

Thank you, we have a similar bot for the Plankton token, it's 2 months or so already but we cannot get it to work for some reason, the delay is like superrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Like hours and hours and ugh. We envy the Beer token bot, it's definitely a rockstar. We appreciate this update @aggroed and thank you that it is free. We're still saving hopefully we can make a tribe, too. Stay awesome and keep rocking Steem-Engine. Cheers!
