The script is posting nightly from npub12vz4acq3a94qpfc9kwp98wwtces5ej7n0h6d44pwc6dmucyvggyses5uyk.

There's also hitchwiki notes, coming from npub1zmd4ydxpmkqg9ztm6tfph0kyhqz36txs8cjtsxd22geqwl2y8k5s7x6qpm, generated by https://github.com/Hitchwiki/hwpybot

Both of these are sending out kind 30399 events to relay.trustroots.org. See https://github.com/Trustroots/nostroots/blob/main/docs/Events.md Not sure if there are currently any other apps besides https://github.com/trustroots/nostroots that can do something useful with these notes, besides e.g. https://lightningk0ala.github.io/nostr-wtf/query

We can consider sending out kind 1 notes, to make this hitch stuff visible in the nostr social media sphere.
