Describe the bug
The bot currently parses all comments in a subreddit for a specified keyword (currently !TextifyBot). This process works, but is not easily scalable. Instead, we should use the username mention feature built into Reddit.
This username mention feature sends an inbox message whenever a username is mentioned by someone else. (Originally discussed in issue #24.)
To Reproduce
Code observation
Expected behavior
The bot will instead monitor its inbox to identify new images to textify.
Screenshots/Logs
N/A
Project information
Noted Start of M3, existed since before M1 (initial planning)
Additional context
A filter will need to be implemented to restrict what subreddits the bot will post in.
