So, how long has it been since I posted in here? ..GEEZUS, 5 MONTHS?! I’m still alive by the way. Wanted to say that I’m still occasionally blogging, but in a different way. I’ve been using Discord, through a private server called ‘Benies-Blogs.com Blog Post Highlights’.
I really wish it was possible for me to learn how to do a bot, that can take what I post in this server and make it into a blog post here (even setting the title, categories, and time). But sadly it seems this only works in reverse, where posts made here can pop on Discord. And that’s not useful to me.
So yeah, that’s all I really wanted to say here. Though if you possibly are good at making bots for Discord that you might know how to do what I wanna do, please get in touch with me so we can work something out. You will definitely get credit.
“Why are you using Discord, though?”, you’re probably asking. To sum it up, I got an easy to follow Pros and Cons here;
–Pros and Cons of using Discord for posts instead of WordPress–
PROS:
1. Don’t have to think of a witty title, set a category, and the date. The date part alone is annoying as I have to set it a minute behind, or it’ll set the time the moment I hit
enter (instead of when I started typing it). Discord sadly has this same ‘issue’.
2. Bulleted lists work better in Discord.
3. I can make random notes that don’t need a title and blah blah blah.
4. Easier to access. Don’t have to rely on Arvixe.
5. Access to all the emojis thanks to Nitro. Don’t have to look for emoji packs
for WordPress.
ANNOYING CONS:
1. 4,000 (with Nitro) character limit per post. How I tend to ramble on (or be
detailed), this can get under my skin. 4,000 characters is not enough for me. 😛
2. “Oh, you haven’t said anything in 10 minutes. MAKING NEW POST” that also affects posting pictures.
