Cool, I found where to setup the scheduler. Any reason to not have it run every 10 minutes on the free plan? I've got it auto-voting my followed users.
The only reason is that it might be too much processing for a free account. That's 144 computations per day, with plenty of HTTP action to fetch data and make votes. Compare that with 24, I'm not sure if you'd still be inside the free account plan limits.
Scheduler add-on runs one-off dynos that will count toward your usage that you will be charged for each month.
But then again it might be fine, I haven't checked. If you find out let us know! I've tested things a lot but I've definitely missed some areas.

That's what I figured. Thanks for the quick responses. I think I'll upgrade to hobby level, and keep you in mind next time I fire up my clean machine's steemd instance for a tip! :-)
Yep, but you should use the Heroku equivilent which is called Heroku Scheduler. It's covered in the installation guide here
If you've been brave enough to try a different config, on a local machine or different server, let me know too!

Perfect, that's exactly the workflow I prefer 🙂 Thanks again

Always appreciated! I'd be really interested to hear how you get on at hobby level, will look out for a post or some such in case you're inspired 😜
