I’m one of the people that actually boosts projects, so after the huge ping ban, I decided to do something with one of my Boosted apps for once. I’m hosting your bots, for free, 24/7 on a Boosted Glitch project. The site explains it much more thoroughly.
But the gist is you go to the website, fill in all the details, pick an action for your project (submit, update, and delete from database), and the bot will be hosted in maximum twelve hours! (Sometimes it can happen in 5 minutes, an hour, or six hours. It varies on when I’m active.)
I’ll post updates on when I do a mass-update in this thread. The bots are hosted on the website’s node.js background, so you can check the source via Glitch to make sure importing went well, there’s no malicious code, etc. All tokens will be put in the .env file.
Before you say this is against their new ToS, I emailed support about this idea and they said it’s okay as long as this doesn’t host a large amount of bots. This should be enough to support a good enough part of the community though.
I hope you all get some form of O.G. Glitch feel, of 24/7 free uptime with (somewhat) fast deployment.
(Important edit: your project must be packaged into a single file with random variables so it doesn’t collide with other scripts. Make another file called packaged.js with all of your .js files combined and variables scrambled and we’ll take it from there.)
You could do a automated system where the bots filesystem gets extractef from a zip and run and then when their 12 hours ends you compress their filesystem into a zip file and repeat for another bot
How would I implement that through Glitch? Some sort of automated project scraper? And the 12 hours is just deployment time, the projects are supposed to run 24/7 always.
this would also pose many issues if bots ran commends from their end. For example a bot can snoop in on tokens, git clone large app. Pretty much do anything. An example of my bot below
We can sanitize malicious commands, such as !eval to make sure other projects are affected. And this system isn’t meant to host hundreds of bots, so performance won’t be an issue since the entire system isn’t supposed to be scale-able to a larger degree.
Nobody on Glitch (the group of people this system is designed for) uses 10GB of ram since the projects don’t even support that much ram. At that point, you need a larger VPS / hosting provider. I’m just providing an alternative to pinging.
that was just as an example lol. and keeping multiple bots in 1 project still isnt a good idea as they use quite a bit of ram and again bots can execute things
