WhisperBot
WhisperBot is an XMPP bot meant to be used in a tightly knit collective for expressing messages anonymously. The bot was made in the context of creating a Code of Conduct for Varia as an attempt to escape the document-ification of the values Varia wishes to hold close. The bot can be sent a private message by a member which the bot will repeat in the group chat. The intention behind it is to provide a format to express concerns/doubts/conflicts outside of existing group dynamics.
How is WhisperBot made?
WhisperBot is small XMPP bot written in Python that is used in group chats. It uses the xbotlib library written by decentral1se.
