What Is Clawdbot? (and Why People Are Losing Their Minds over It)
twitter.comHow come this is suddenly popping up everywhere?
And looking through past submissions for it on HN it seems people have tried posting about it many times but it never seems to get traction...
I was thinking the same thing. It also has an absurd number of stars (not that this necessarily is a good signal for quality but still) on Github.
From a cursory glance, it looks like a metric-F### ton of external app connectors (Telegram, Discord, etc) so you can chat with a locally hosted LLM.

I bought a Mac mini m4 last year to compile UE5 for iOS/iPad. It’s just been sitting around while I do my main dev work on Windows. Been wondering how I might put it to greater use and recently saw the hype around Mac Mini + Clawdbot. It would be fun to think that the Mac Mini unlocks some sweet spot of performance but I’m seeing responses from the Clawdbot developers showing how you can run Clawdbot on AWS’ free tier so guess the mini is not necessary / just a fantasy.
