With the rapidly approaching shutdown of botsin.space in a few days, I'm taking the decision of ending @fruitmachine after 6 years of (not always regular) spins.
It started with a silly idea I posted on the Mutant Standard Discord server that then grew into some code haphazardly bridged to the fediverse.
I'm not sure how many posts were made, but I know it randomly generated a "pay line" of pentacles back in 2021, which was pretty cool. At some point in 2022, after it crossed 10K posts, I enabled auto-deletion to reduce its footprint on the server, so I lost track of the total number of posts.
A big thank you to @muffinista for hosting this bot (and so many others); and to @dzuk for the continued work on Mutant Standard, which was at the core of the bot's output; and to everyone who followed and interacted with the bot at any point.
If you liked the emojos featured in this bot, you should definitely be following Mutant Standard: @mutantstd - https://mutant.tech
Caius does outstanding design work (including commission emojis!), support/hire them: https://nocturne.works/
The bot's code will still be at https://github.com/shello/fruitmachinebot -- I don't expect it to be of use to anyone, but it doesn't hurt to keep it online.
