Who thought that writing an automated account for Bsky would be easy

Have spent the past 3 hours getting up to speed on the XRPC calls required to be able to authenticate and then post to Bsky.

I really want to know how many people they were expecting, or even hoping, were going to select the "I want the bullshitting chatbot in Discord" options in the survey.
