Ask HN: Make social media bots or learn FFmpeg C API?

1 pointsby muragekibichoover 2 years ago
I enjoy making Instagram and Twitter bots. I also enjoy working with the FFMPEG C api - not the commandline. This is my current Instagram bot-making course - https:&#x2F;&#x2F;zuck-cat.phoneworker.online&#x2F;<p>I hope to make a second course and I&#x27;d love to know what people prefer: 1. Reverse engineering the Twitter and Instagram APIs to make production-ready social media bots - we find and map all the HTTP endpoints for Twitter and Instagram. Capstone project is a bot that leaves the FIRST comment whenever a celebrity posts on IG or Twitter 2. Learn the FFMPEG C api - we go through FFMPEG data structures, translate command line prompts into C code, navigate the large documentation and build a video decoder and encoder in C
