Long story short, I tried to get a voat API key but they don't seem to be available so yesterday I hacked my own wrapper together for a voat bot that watches new posts on a subverse, scrapes links from the OP, uses google to search the subverse for posts that contain that link and posts a comment with link to that post if its found. I will be running it manually till I feel comfortable to let it loose to run on its own.

I still need to normalize the link output better and I need to put in some error handling and I'm sure there will be some edge case stuff that will break it and need to be fixed. In any case, If you have any feedback on how to improve it or if you find a bad link, something wrong, or even an idea for other type of benevolent bots, let me know.
If you click one of the links be sure to upvoat the bot account.
Cheers!

Don't want to start another subverse. Can someone tell me how to repost something that was deleted yesterday? Photos of a m edia m atters party with JA. Thx

Try posting it in Pizzagatewhatever? Make a new post linking to the pizzagatewhatever where it is unlikely to be deleted, and provide links with it and make sure you've followed all the rules, or ask a mod to reinstate your post.

It was someone else's post and was deleted immediately, but my archive still shows the photos. I'll try what you've said. Thanks
