Description

I noticed recently the bot getting a bunch of "THING_NOT_FOUND" errors, as I checked, it turned out all the impacted comments were under NSFW posts. (I also think that reddit automatically changed visibility, such that factorions comments and posts are no longer visible on the profile, likely incorrectly detecting it as a potential child)

During that I stumbled over a post on r/redditdev announcing a move to an app status and registration for bot accounts. Registering factorion-bot seems like a good idea, and might even help with the problems regarding nsfw and changing of visibility settings.
