I hate facebook and haven’t used it in years, but I live in a small town where many local events are only discussed on facebook or instagram. I’m wondering if there’s a way to create a niche lemmy community with a bot that regurgitates that content so I’m not out of the loop?
Any repo links or online guides for setting this up? Or maybe Meta’s walled garden is impenetrable to scraping?
Same problem as you. From what I found, you need an admin account on the Facebook city account. Then, you can build a bot to cross post to mastodon, RSS, whatever.
But seems like you cannot do it with your own Facebook account.
what causes the limitation? the posts are readable to all registered users
