Make presence represent Sentinel's status

Open Uri-Rocky opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Since we have sentinel released, would it be possible to use discord's user status system to show how the bot is my idea is Online/green = all shards are online Idle/yellow = recomnecting/ loading Away/red = rebooting / updating

In my opinion, that would not serve any purpose except for flashyness. If a user sees yellow, they'd get confused as to why that is. It wouldn't even get to the DnD status, since that'd only cover the bot being online all the while not being connected to the first shard.

It's either offline or online for a specific server. Those are my two cents.

It might make sense to display away, when FredBoat isn't online (but the sentinels are). I'm not sure if it is technically viable though.

I definitely don't want to show away/dnd when a fraction of the shards are up. If a shard is offline, it will simply appear offline in those guilds
