Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet

Problem Statement

The /buddy Tamagotchi companion was released as an April Fools feature, but many users genuinely loved it. PLEASE GIVE US BUDDY FEAT

Proposed Solution

Make /buddy a permanent feature, not a seasonal Easter egg. It could be opt-in via settings so it doesn't affect users who don't want it

TL;DR

The /buddy Tamagotchi companion feature should be made permanent and opt-in to cater to users who enjoyed it.

Guidance

  • Review the implementation of the /buddy feature to determine the necessary changes for making it permanent.
  • Consider adding a settings option to allow users to opt-in or opt-out of the feature.
  • Evaluate the potential impact on the user experience and adjust the feature accordingly.
  • Discuss the priority of the feature with the development team, as it is currently labeled as "Low - Nice to have".

Notes

The feature request lacks technical details, so a thorough analysis of the codebase and user requirements is necessary to determine the best approach.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the feature is currently not available, consider creating a temporary opt-in solution or a separate module for the /buddy feature to test its feasibility and user engagement before making it a permanent addition.
