all I'd be able to run it from safely is a pi with a pruned chain (and without a constant connection)...

Somehow I was under the impression you need a full chain for this. What's the memory requirement? If it's not too much, a cheap VPS could do. Although I wouldn't trust those with much funds.

I've always wanted to run "something" that can fund any (small) LN payment request posted on the forum within seconds. I already check all posts, but need the LN side of it to work.

There was a fairly recent *I think* developmenf that allows you to now host a pruned node for it (not sure if it's an spv one or not).
Cheap VPS nodes aren't a bad idea as long as the aup is reasonable and the connection is quite good. I think there was a device you could use to run lightning also (maybe cassa or whatever its called does it).

And what are you after with the posts? You could find ln and a hex string following it or you could find something that'll digest the string. Do you need a hand coding something I can only do python, c# and java to a good enough extent...

If you're going to start the list, now I see philipma in here, I would suggest adding mocacinno here too. Not sure if you'd consider him super trustworthy as far as people go on this forum...

I'll send him a pm too. I should make it clear at this point that i will not be the one who decides who's trustworthy and who isn't, I want a list of forum members, from there everyone should be able to make their own informed decisions about who they believe is trustworthy.

A lot of people for example give trust based on how people post and I ignore that when determining whether to trade with someone (unless it's something serious) as a non payment or a delay is more of a problem than whether someone said something someone else didn't agree with... So I realise my views are particularly biased.
