Thanks for the development of this bot, @moelholm. But unfortunately nothing has been going on for several years and the bot is constantly spreading false information in the Fediverse (see #32). That's a shame, because if it didn't post outdated handles, it would be very helpful.

But by spreading false, outdated Mastodon handles, users get confused and subscribe to old, defunct accounts and think, this person or group is now inactive on Mastodon. But that is not the case. And they don't know it. As there are more and more people who have switched instances, more and more people are affected. The bot directs users to accounts that have been closed. So today, the bot is doing more harm than good.
