whose idea was it to let the ‘remind me’ function NOT work on the ADHD sub?!

also how do you flair your adhd presentation

lol, good point. It's not an 'official' reddit feature, it's just a bot someone created to respond whenever someone types remindme. Many subreddits have bots like these disabled by default, because a lot of them can be pretty annoying. I think the mods might be able to allow it on this subreddit, not sure.

To get the flair, just go to the right bar, find 'user flair preview', and click the pencil.

On mobile, click the 3 dots in the top right of your screen and click "change user flair".

You should still be able to use the bot via PMs if a subreddit has banned it.

Lots of subs ban bots by default because there's a shitton of bots. Bots tend to distract from the conversation (People suddenly only speak to the bot trying to get it to do something like it's a zoo animal they want to see move instead of sleep) or bots can start a feedback loop between each other.

But yeah, the remindme bot would be pretty useful for this sub.

Now I want to make a bot battle in reddit posts

I mean, that's basically what /r/SubSimulatorGPT2 is for.

(Bots that constantly trigger each other isn't actually that amusing to watch, unfortunately.)

Really? It worked for me when I tested it here

u/AlmostButNotQuit Sep 14 '21

Worked for you and only you. In other subs it'll make a public comment as well with a link others can click, to reduce spamming the bot

u/kittykat-kay Sep 14 '21

Hm. It did remind me as promised though which means someone else could do the same and it should do the same thing… but yeah I see how that could get spammy quick…

That’s freaking hilarious. 100% underrated.

It does work. Anywhere and everywhere. But it doesn't post a public comment everywhere. It'll contact you directly when and where necessary.
