Hello once again peeps. As part of my work in categorizing and flairing users based on their registration application, I thought, "why not use the same code to have a constantly running script that checks for new applications and automatically flairs them. Then after I built that, I thought to myself "why not PM new users with their starting flair"? And, well, long story short, our instance now has a script that will automatically PM new users with a full welcome message.
The message will include the users starting flair, based on their stated favorite Anarchist, Pirate or FOSS Advocate and then will suggest some starting comms to join, based on those tags. You can see an example in the attached image.
I feel like this is a neat idea to simulate something like the bluesky starting packs. Of course since we don't quite have something like an onboarding screen, I can't finetune the suggestions too much, but at least we have something.
Let me know if you can think of any improvements to this process.
