That was fast! From the moment I refactored the code to Golang and started using it some new features arrived that I have been making use.

The last release adds two plugins:

• Domain blocker: Allows adding the plugin to a channel and set up a list of domains to block. If a message contains a link to one of those domains, the message is deleted and the user warned.

I’ve decided to revive Butterrobot after a long hiatus.

The project was originally written in Python and it was designed to be a simple way to have quality of life in Slack and Telegram channels. After I made the initial implementation I started going deeper into Golang and mostly abandoned it with a promise to come back and rewrite it in the future.

That day is here.
