This bot is based on the original twitter handle "ladies and gentlemen, the weekend 😌" which will publish Daniel Craig video every weekend. I missed seeing this on mastodon, hence spent some time to build this. You can follow @CraigWeekend@techhub.social mastodon account to get the toot.
Nothing fancy, just a cron job that runs at 12:00 AM UTC on every saturday.
# clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/gowthamgts/craig-weekend
