It's not costing me anything to keep it running and it *does* benefit people. My stance on opt-in changed from "yes I'll add that ASAP" to "I don't have the time" to "I think it's better as is because the bot's supposed to help everyone other than the person it's replying to"
No, I don't have any concrete data no. But if I go on what I do know, the bot is received well. It's reflected in the karma score (especially because I try to filter out all of the meme mentions), the comment replies and it's reflected in the messages I get (which is also saying something because the people who hate tend to be more vocal). And it's not about the "two clicks", it's a convenience to people who are mostly mobile users. People find purpose in the bot all the time too, which is discovering new subreddits they're interested in.
If you did a bit of sleuthing you could probably find my real account. I just removed the link between the two as I realised I'd talked about certain things that could identify me both ways which I didn't want to happen so easily.
Thank you for the feedback.
There's nothing here!
