I think the title says it all. Basically, when a new comment appears on your targeted post, it sends you a PM about it.

Subscribe to a post: just mention the bot in the comments or send the link to the bot via PM.
Unsubscribe from a post: send PM to the bot with stop text and link of the post like stop https://lemmy.ml/post/1234
Unsubscribe completely: Send PM to the bot and add stop text to your message. It will unsubscribe you from all subscriptions.

Note: the bot sends only one notification per post. It waits for the previous notification to be marked as read for new comments.

Made with @CannotSleep420@hexbear.net's lemmy-bot project 🙏 Tomorrow I will publish the code publicly after adding README and self-hosting guide.

So every user that decides to get notified will add a comment to the thread?

If 100 people trigger it, 100 comments will be the exact same response?

Also, if people end up "deleting the comment to keep the thread clean", will they get purged as well?

Valid criticism. I’ll try to clear it tomorrow 👍 Any suggestions are appreciated.

It could send a message to the user instead of commenting on the thread

Why not send the messages/instructions as a PM as well?
