What is this community?

This community is using the blog roll and summarization set up by sly flourish, author of "the lazy dungeon master" as set up here: https://dndblogs.com/

Every day new posts on this blog roll will be posted here by the bot. Posts are disallowed, but comments are allowed on the given posts.

I find this community annoying

You can block this community so that you never see its posts, either through your user settings or the community side bar!

Question for the overlords: What's going on with the duplicate posts from the bot? It seems that about once a day there's a vomit of duplicates from the day previous. I'm a big fan of the service so I've been sorting through, but I worry it might continue forever if someone doesn't ask.
- Thanks for pointing this out! I actually didn't notice. I'm out of town for the moment for work, and have been traveling for a bit, but I'll be back home next week and should have a chance to take a look at it.
  
  Weird that it's happening, because the bit has a built in double check for duplicates, but I'll take a look and see if I can figure it out.
  
  Thank you for taking a look and for continuing to do the thing for us here!
I updated the index.xml feed so it updates every hour now and has a max of 30 articles.
- Don’t know if it’s too much to ask for, but I would like a feed that updates weekly instead of daily, can get overwhelming to get a daily new list on RSS
  
  If it were weekly it’d have hundreds of articles all at once.
Hey, @[email protected] is this feed busted?
- yeah, the API library the bot uses to connect to the lemmy API broke when the contract changed in the upgrade to 19.5; I logged an issue on the github for the api, but it hasnt gone anywhere, so i doubt the repo is being actively maintained. I haven't had a chance to really dig into it myself, but if it doesnt go somewhere soon, i might have to see if i can fix it up.
  
  I'm a dev (with zero free time). Point me at it.
Is there a way to request additions to this blog roll?
- It's an RSS feed currently maintained by @[email protected]. You can bring it up to him, but it's also his personal blog roll, i believe, so it's up to his discretion if he adds anything, we just scrape it for this community (with his blessing)
  
  He's here on ttrpg.network, but he's also on Mastodon if you want to contact him there, or via his website
