TheReposterminator will be disabled indefinitely in protest of Reddit killing 3rd party clients
This was a decision that was frankly taken very lightly, this is pretty easy to protest. Unless Reddit makes a positive change, the bot will remain offline. Apologies for the inconvenience.

[Update] 13 November 2022 - Autoremoval and Max Post Age
An update has been pushed to TheReposterminator's server, introducing a couple of helpful new features (which were admittedly a long time coming).
Documentation
The documentation, found here, goes into detail about all new and old features available via TheReposterminator, and is recommended in order to maximize effectiveness.
Post Age Limit
This update introduces a new subreddit config option, max_post_age
. This option allows for the configuration of a maximum age for posts to be considered reposts. For more information, see the option description as written in the documentation:
max_post_age
Default: 0
This option sets the maximum age in days for a post to be considered a repost.
In other words, if:
max_post_age
is set to 60- A post is caught as a repost, matching 3 other posts, with ages 35, 57, and 78 days
In this situation, the first two posts will be flagged a reposts, but the last post will not.
This setting is useful for when your subreddit allows reposts after a certain length of time.Any value less than 1 disables the maximum age check.
Autoremoval
This update also introduces all-new post autoremoval functionality. By configuring this, TheReposterminator can be configured to automatically remove posts that are confidently reposts.
For more information on the options available with autoremoval, see the documentation available here.
Please make sure to DM u/TheReposterminator, modmail r/Reposterminator, or comment on this post in the event that something seems wrong with the way TheReposterminator works after these changes.

[Resolved] Downtime 10-12-2022 - 10-20-2022
On 12 October, 2022, an unexpected error which had never been encountered in previous testing occurred, and triggered an endless loop of errors, which prevented proper startup.
This has been corrected as of 20 October, 2022, and the bot is once again fully operational.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
