CrossTalk PM

CrossTalk PM serves as a digital intermediary, facilitating connections and communications between users from distinct online platforms. It primarily focuses on identifying mentions of Reddit usernames in external platforms like rDrama and subsequently, notifying the mentioned Reddit users. This endeavor aims to foster a seamless information exchange and enhance inter-community interactions.

Key Features

  • User Mention Monitoring: CrossTalk PM diligently scans specified platforms for Reddit usernames being mentioned, ensuring no significant mention goes unnoticed.
  • Automated User Notifications: Upon detecting a mention, it autonomously initiates a Reddit chatroom or dispatches a private message to the mentioned user, thereby alerting them.
  • Adherence to Privacy: The application is designed with a strong commitment to privacy, processing only publicly disclosed information and adhering to privacy norms.
