How hard would it be to setup ... a Reddit TTC tip bot .... ?
I don't social media, so forgive this question born of my ignorance....
What exactly does a tip bot do, and how is it different from people just sending each other coins?
Also, why is it associated with a particular social media channel, and would a different channel need a different one?

A tip bot allows for a much more streamlined process of sending crypto currencies over social media. You don't have to know the address of the person you wish to tip, instead you type the command usually involving a combination of the tip bots name, the user you wish to tip, and the amount of coins you wish to tip. The bot then sends that amount to a wallet that is only accessible by the person that you tipped. You are therefore guaranteed that they will be able to access any coins that they were tipped without going through the trouble of asking for their deposit address. This also makes it much easier to show your appreciation for a specific comment or post.
As far as the second question goes, I'm not really an expert, but I believe the tip bots are usually associated with a specific website/social media channel because each one uses different API's and therefore must be coded differently for each website. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Hope that helps
