I’ve spent the whole day on this, but now joining and using the Fediseer (previously known as Overseer) should be an order of magnitude easier!

    Yes it’s possible to do it via PMs. It’s next thing I want to work on, but it has some complexity

      Cool, I am actually working on a sort of mailing-list for lemmy (and maybe I’ll look at other platforms depending how they interop, it basically just controls bot users on a lemmy instance) and am actively working on doing something vaguely similar, so LMK if I can help in any way.

          If I enjoyed writing python I would consider it, haha. I’m much more into JS and Go myself (at least outside of work hours), so if you get to the point where you’re building a spiffy frontend give me a call.

            I actually do need someone to build a spiffy frontend! You can already start, the REST API is fully documented

              I may very well do that once I’ve gotten a prototype of my mailing list thing going. I’m hoping to get an initial version of that out today or tomorrow. I am overengineering it a bit for this first release with most everything going through job queues so it (hopefully) doesn’t fall apart as soon as people actually start using it and can scale somewhat easily if necessary.

              P.S. You may find my mailing-list thing useful for letting admins (or other interested parties) subscribe to get updates about Fediseer from you as PMs rather than relying on them happening to see updates posted to communities. If you’re interested LMK and I can set you up as one of the beta users once it’s ready.
