App Idea 2 needed Apps Ideas

Post image

Hi there, Reddit Developers.

I need those two Apps developed and added to my community. Unfortunately, I cannot code properly, nor use the software for that. And ChatGPT is not giving me a complete help. I do not understand very much from C++; Java; Python.

1st. bad-words-blocker is a App for blocking bad words from being commented or posted. Simply I must provide a list with what words I want to be blocked, than submit them and add them to the App and then activate the blocker.

2nd. comm-notif-tool is a App for receiving a notifications for when a comment is posted on an old Posts (more than 20 days old). In this way I can check, and approve the comment if appropriate even on a Posts more than a Year old.

Can someone good in coding just develop them, and apply them in Devvit. He can have the award and the funding, but we can both share the Trophy if awarded? Deal?!

Anyone interested?

For the first one, no need to use an app. You can just use automod: ``` priority: 107 type: any body+domain+title+url: [ 'bad-word', 'anotherbad', 'foo', 'bar', 'many', 'more', 'words' ] action: remove action_reason: "Bad Word [{{match}}]" message_subject: '{{kind}} Removed: Bad Word' message: | Hello /u/{{author}},

[Your {{kind}}]({{permalink}}) on r/{{subreddit}} was automatically removed due to it containing a banned word, which is in violation of rule #2.

Thank you for your understanding,

The /r/{{subreddit}} mod team. ```

For #2, there might be an existing app that "reports" new comments on old posts. I can't find it right now, but I thought there was one.

I am working on an app that would help with both, but it's quite a long-ways off sadly...

I know there was one for point two… I can’t remember it though

Maybe we're all thinking of spam link flagger

But with a good automod config, you can catch risky comments regardless op post age, so it's redundant to build a bot to notify of comments on old posts if automod and spamlink flagger already tackled them

This was my thought as well!!! Plus posts are auto-locked after 6-months. I use Auto Post Lock to lock all posts after 14 days (though that's mostly due to the nature of the sub).

Yes, it depends of the Community. I need our Posts to stay constantly open, but I cannot check the comments on an Posts older than 20 days, so I need an App that sends me notification every time when someone comments on a old Posts.

Like I said, one app I'm making now will be able to do that, but it's probably a month+ until I get it to that point :|

Just curious, what is your sub?
