I learned a few new things about how databases work, but not before missing around ~400 posts from the last hour because of 'table locks'. This means that the bot may have missed a few notifications. I'll try to somehow scrape them later for the archive. If it's just 400, you can easily get them from my online post archive.

If the forum is going to get involved in anything, I'd like it to be an image hosting project. That would prevent embedded images from disappearing after a while.

I suggest to just try LN with small amounts, know that you can lose it but use it anyway because of it's potential.
I haven't used Electrum yet with LN.

I might have just misunderstood the problem, might want to elaborate the actual issue?
I want to remove duplicate lines without changing the order, so only keeping the first occurrence. Say: A G D A B C D I want to keep: A G D B C

I am having to do some upfront pay so I just am trying my ways to verify that it's the actual right person that I am trying to deal with.
None of this is going to help you if someone wants to scam you. I wouldn't pay upfront to someone I don't trust.

Just wait for this: I could run this code on 53 million archived posts, but the main problem will be excluding quotes. That's annoying and slow to do, and if I don't exclude them, it will completely mess up the data. On the other hand, quotes may still contain information that was deleted by the user who posted it. Even without quotes, users still post Bitcoin addresses that aren't theirs, for instance when providing evidence on a scammer. This is planned for my post archive. I had done that but only with ETH addresses and the 15m posts you sent me + the new scraped one. I plan to scan all old posts + new ones for ETH and BTC addresses after everything is working fine (new bot + full database with the whole post archive).

However the most I needed this was when enrolling for a new campaign which ask you to post the total received merits in the last 120days. With some mental maths it is easy to put down a very close to accurate number for it.

Other / Meta / Re: Using Automated Translation Tool to Post on English Boards, is it Allowed?

Posting on local boards with automated translation tools is not allowed according to rule #27. But there is no rule that prohibits doing the same from another language into English. <…>
I wonder if that was the intent of the rule, or a loophole in the wording. I think it's intentional: when something who doesn't speak English has a technical problem with Bitcoin, he's welcome to post translated content on an English board. It's not okay to translate a topic to many different local boards. In this case, translating a website, I'd say it should be removed as zero effort posting.
