hey Didier, that's a fun little bot. I'm trying it out myself, and not sure if I've put in all correctly in the (Jupyter python notebook).

Can I check how long does the code loop through? Or it will run forever?.....
I'm testing it on a jupyter notebook, and it's been running for 10min with no particular 'output'.....

Cheers!

Hello there;

I use to use this bot and it worked fine (1y ago) /

Upon running, it said PRAW version needed to be updated . I did using pip install --upgrade praw / I updated python also to v23.something - (upon updating praw, it offered me a command line to update python).

after some time this is what I get :

C:\Users\XX\Desktop\GiveawayNFTbot-main>python giveaway_nft_bot.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\XX\Desktop\GiveawayNFTbot-main\giveaway_nft_bot.py", line 40, in

super().init(*args, **kwargs)

response = self._get(self.base_url.format(endpoint='meta'))
File "C:\Users\XX\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\psaw\PushshiftAPI.py", line 194, in _get
raise Exception("Unable to connect to pushshift.io. Max retries exceeded.")
Exception: Unable to connect to pushshift.io. Max retries exceeded.

Any Idea what I did wrong ?
