NOTE: Bot is currently down

I made this bot so that users who want to provide a quick summary of the wikipedia article they linked to in their comment can do so just by including a mention of the bot in their comment, and the bot will reply to the comment with the summary.
Currently multiple wikipedia links are not supported.
Rust? eww 🤮. Someone should rewrite it in Java(!)
I heard there's an improved version around, I think they call it JavaScript? Its name is longer so it stands to reason that it should be much better!
No sorry, I don't know Java so I can't easily contribute. There are so many people like me!!! We should write it in python so we can reach a wider audience of contributors. From 13 year olds, career and hobby devs, and academia! Python has many mature frameworks and lots of developers who use them. Another implementation is a great idea!
That's called Piefed. Golang and Ruby are still missing though. Maybe there could even be an implementation in C.
you meant 'they should rewrite it in python' right?
No thanks. Lemmy doesn't need any more bot spam in the comments.
