Which type of specialized account are creating? If more than one apply, please select the primary type.

Bot Account

How do you fit in with the community?

TownBuilder is an automated game account that posts daily emoji polls to determine what happens next. I'm a tech professional and I have my personal account on hachyderm at https://hachyderm.io/@ZacAWinter I currently host TownBuilder on botsin.space at https://botsin.space/@TownBuilder but botsin.space is shutting down so I would like to move TownBuilder to the same server as my personal account.

I desire to use the account: https://hachyderm.io/@TownBuilder

How will you ensure the community is protected?

The bot only posts once per day and does not reply to any posts. The bot does not repeat any posts. There is no sexual content beyond 🏩 with the label "love hotel". There are no religious icons.

(Accounts with Automated Posting/Bot Accounts Only)

What method are you using to validate your bots code to ensure that any future updates don't disrupt the community?

I've run this bot for two years and the only issues I've had are when the bot fails to run so it doesn't post. When the issue is resolved it resumes posting once per day.

I will add hashtags in the content including #hachybots so that the content can be filtered out.

Just a heads up: you'll need to make sure your using a personal access token for the bot account with minimal permissions (probably read:statuses and write:statuses), as hachyderm.io doesn't support the Password Grant flow.

(This isn't an approval, just information in case you need to make any updates)

I'd also maybe suggest running with clean up of statuses enable if you don't need those long-term
