so #mastodon #programming question...what's the most painless way to start working on bots? I've been wanting to poke at some ideas for making robot pals around here, but the unfamiliarity barrier is kinda intimidating. Anyone abstracted away all the nasty stuff into a package I can use with a programming language I actually like, like C#? (Lisp or Rust would be even better but I'm not asking for miracles)
