I have no idea why @time and @HN

have followed, but if it serves a useful purpose, go for it.

I am intrigued by the STEM focus and the ridiculously large toot space, though.

@Algot @time @HN @Curator I'm the owner of the bots. When i first created the accounts I was going to make them my aspects, so I followed anyone who followed me. I decided to turn them into bots though instead (they dont follow anyone automatically).

The purpose of the @HN bot is obvious, just posts Hacker News. The point of the Time bot is to remind you of the time in your feed, and the time in other countries. This helps give context to toots since they are always displayed in your timeline in chronological order. So easy to get a sense of the time something was posted as you scroll through your timeline.

Our toot space and STEM focus is certainly pretty unique. The way i see it if a user wants to make short toots, they can, if they want to make large toots, they can. Thats between you and the people you follow.
