I've cleaned up my code and checked it in here: https://github.com/dfrencham/lemmy-post-bot
I use Visual Studio code (I run it using the Linux subsystem for windows).
I've put instructions in the README.md file, and cron setup instructions in the SETUP_CRON.md file.
If you are not setup to build the bot, then I can create a built version and post a .tar.gz file for you to use.
Thank you, that is a lot simpler than the code I was using. Although I have miraculously got mine to work now, so will probably stick with that rather trying to redo it at this point, at least for now. It's been a steep learning curve, but I am starting to somewhat understand what I am looking at with the code now, so that's something!
I enjoyed this and it was very wholesome. Well done you two.

Great to hear it is working :) always a great feeling.
I've updated my code to output a single .js file which can be called with node. The file is in a zip here: github
If you have a look at the code updates, you might find feature/unfeature code useful. :)
Fabulous, I'll have a look.
