Introduction Before the move to Python3, redken had per-group language configuration by using i18n, with the upgrade/rewrite of Python3 code there were some issues and I had to remove the support, defaulting everything to English (most of the outputs where already in English so not a great loss). On another side, having to manually configure each channel could be problematic as most users just add the bot to their groups but don’t care about other settings that might be useful like welcome message, inactivity for kicking out inactive users, etc. ...
