How do I change my username on Indie Hackers?
I'm one of the early beta testers for Watchdog. It's awesome to witness the potential for AI in moderating trolls and undesirable messages in my communities and chat groups. Since adding Watchdog to my local chat group, I no longer worry about not catching spam messages in the chat while I'm asleep.
Thanks Jason! Has been great working with you.
So it's kind of a "Dyno" but for telegram?
It's similar, but better. Dyno isn't able to intelligently monitor messages, it just looks for banned words which leads to too many false positives in my experience.
If your banned word is "fuck" for example, you wouldn't want to ban someone that says "hey, that's really fucking cool!" or "fuck, I'm sorry to hear that man" but you probably would if they tell another member to "go fuck themselves."
That's where Watchdog shines. You can define rules in plain English like "no insulting language towards other members" instead of simple banned words/string filters and the number of false positives is significantly reduced that way.
I'll add some "compared to" pages on the landing page to make the differences between existing solutions and Watchdog much more clear.
Thanks for the comment!
