Feature request: Allow FredBoat to DM me track announcements

Open fishstik opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Many times server admins turn off now playing announcements with track_announce = false. For those times, I would like to have FredBoat announce new tracks as a DM to me. I imagine it could be implemented by sending a command in the server channel (e.g. ;;dmnowplaying) to 'subscribe' to DM announcements. Then something like ;;stopdm (either in the server channel or via DM) to stop the announcements.

Would this be feasible?

Discord has somewhat strict limitations on DMs, so this would probably not be useful on the large public FredBoat instance.

We also don't have a way to store per-user preferences, so that's a bit tricky.
