I'm working on a new project that will start as a Discord server. What bots have you found most useful and how do you use them?
Bonus points: What bots should exist? Maybe someone here will be excited to build it. π
Start with no bots, then recruit admins from among your users to handle this. It'll happen easily, naturally and organically that way. I'll be an admin and help you out if you want.
@humboldtproject appreciate that, Marlo! I'm working with a few folks now but may open this up to a much wider audience in the coming weeks.
To your point, I agree it's best to do things manually and then add bots as clear needs arise.

The discord-role-bot for auto assignment of roles. BetterAntiSpam to deal with the grift.

- Collab.land, Sesh Bot, Welcome Mod, POAP Bot, Captcha
- Not sure if SourceCred has a bot that we use but that's cool
- Someone definitely needs to create a history bot that can be an exportable archive of an individual's activity (just in case you leave a server or Discord over corrects with their spam/hack bot)
- A searchable directory of users that you share servers with
- A bot that lets someone know when they have a Hot-mic during a community call (at least from an Admin dashboard - something better than mute button)
- A timer-bot that times when someone is invited on stage to ask a question and then plays them off nicely with music when their time is approaching (we've been doing this manually and it works a charm)
Plenty of others - but they may not all be Bot-table π€
totally biased - Collab.Land bot for crypto based communities. These NFT communities are the evolution of social and crypto. More community than βsocialβ (as in social media).
Community finance - ComFi (pronounced comfy)?
One of my favourite things about Discord are react bots e.g Zira https://top.gg/bot/2758138017926... You just have to react to an emoji to set off a role based automation (like being able to access a channel or get updates etc). Makes customisation for members easy and fun!

Weeding through the discord bots that aren't geared for 12 year olds is tough. My buddy compiled a pretty nice list at https://medium.com/launchpass/th... but admittedly plugged his own objectively dope bot at #4.

I've been working on igni for more than a year. It's a bot with moderation (automod, clearing messages, banning users), fun and reaction command (which will send GIFs), some image manipulations (macro/meme maker), dev commands (searching npm registry), games (osu, minecraft integration as well as it's own trivia and few more), reaction roles (like click a reaction to get a role/color) and generally anything one of my servers needed (I own or administrate servers with 300k+ members).
I'm also working on a website for it so it can fully replace bots like mee6 (which have a lot of paid basic features) and Dyno (which is great moderation bot, but I still needed a bit more sometimes).
Igni is on bot lists like top.gg, so you can find it there.

Can I join it?

(Sent you a LinkedIn message with a connection request. *How are we not connected yet? w-t-heck? :)*
Message contains.. "Ryan, I know a person who is an admin of a famous Discord server group; Christiaan Neeteson. Meditation Mind is the group - 4601 members. 665 online as I look at it." I suggest asking him. He's also an Online Marketing Manager which is very cool too. Hope it helps!

I would add more. However, I prefer to do that via direct message like LinkedIn or whatever.
