A public wishlist that everyone can see by manually checking with the bot. Notify the secret santa when wishes are added by respective person for secret santa

Also, sending messages anonymously to your santa & to your recipient would solve a lot of this & be flexible enough to solve a lot of other problems.

Hi,

Yeah I understand this would be a nice addition. But this is project do not have a database (mainly for privacy purposes and for simplifying everything) so we can not really have that kind of features.

As a workaround I know some teams share a collaborative document in the admin message so every participant can share there their wishlist or other information.

For my sending messages anonymously, the privacy issue could be solved by saving a seed for the random function and a hash of the input, to recreate the secret santa pairings when a message needs to be sent. and then, since it's near-completely anonymous, a really simple database like firebase could be used.
