@PostWatchBot - notify new comments of a post (lemy.lol)

I think the title says it all. Basically, when a new comment appears on your targeted post, it sends you a PM about it.

@[email protected]

Usage

Subscribe to a post: just mention the bot in the comments or send the link to the bot via PM.
Unsubscribe from a post: send PM to the bot with stop text and link of the post like stop https://lemmy.ml/post/1234
Unsubscribe completely: Send PM to the bot and add stop text to your message. It will unsubscribe you from all subscriptions.

Note: the bot sends only one notification per post. It waits for the previous notification to be marked as read for new comments.

Made with @[email protected]'s lemmy-bot project 🙏 Tomorrow I will publish the code publicly after adding README and self-hosting guide.

Is it possible to subscribe to a comment thread as well? So if anyone replies to your comment I get a notification?

Yes it is possible and I want to implement it soon, but I can't give a date. I'm thinking of making it so that when the bot is mentioned in a reply to a comment, make it notify comments only on that comment chain.
