Will the Discobot tutorial work with flags disabled?

Bug

That’s a known bug Discobot didn't recognize link in tutorial

But discobot suggests skipping after 2 fails without any customization:

Hey, thanks for the reply!

Unfortunately, as a poorly programmed bot, I can’t quite understand that one. :frowning:

You can try again, or if you’d like to skip this step, say skip. Otherwise, to start over, say start tutorial.

Tutorial:

  1. Bookmark: Remove “bookmark” from post menu, set max bookmarks per day to 0
  2. Onebox: Set max oneboxes per post to 0 (after some posts where it fails it suggests to use skip)
  3. Mention: Set max mentions per post to 0 (replying without an @mention also triggers the skip information after 2 posts, but who would try that?)
  4. Quote: Disabling default other enable quoting breaks a part of “Select the text of whichever ↑ quote you prefer, and then press the Quote button that pops up over your selection – or the Reply button at the bottom of this post.” because there is no quote button, but replying works.
  5. Image upload: Removing all? extensions from authorized extensions or disabling embedded media post allowed groups

Good news: disabling enable emoji does not break the tutorial, the step is skipped.

Advanced tutorial:

  1. Edit: edit post allowed groups which exclude the user or removing “Edit” from post menu, also a very short (tl2) post edit time limit makes it challenging
  2. Delete: Removing “delete” from post menu, set max post deletions per day and/or max post deletions per minute to 0
  3. Undelete: delete removed posts after set to 0 makes it more difficult, because the post disappears on reload.

I haven’t checked the next steps
