Procedural seeding of comments #176

Open huulbaek opened 6 years ago

It would be great with a possibility to seed automatic user defined comments in some way. Fx comments like "This is a great idea" or meta comments like "I am unemployed".

We exclusively embed and do not have much time to seed manually.

Was just thinking about this while biking yesterday. Team Pol.is doesn't necessarily need to build this, as it could be an external tool that uses a provided api token.

It could probably be auto-generated (or the creation streamlined) from a twitter search query, like #InternationalVolunteerDay "i feel"

Then the admin could just tick a few boxes and maybe drag comments into assumed groups. The UI could be much simpler than that though

I feel like this is perhaps a who little side-project that would really help people "sell" pol.is to the communities the participate in :)

Careful Pat you sound like you're volunteering to build an API tool there :D

excited regardless, but particularly excited to build things if there's possibility of upstreaming!

Suggestion: allow "forking/copying" a conversation, which could generate a new convo preseeded with anonymized comments from the parent. A data attribute could help init new embedded convos from a parent convo ID.
