A week ago, I lamented the demise of @ginabot and introduced you to F.R.I.D.A.Y. bot. At the same time, I included an explainer and, what I hoped, was some constructive criticism. The point of this update is to confirm that, indeed, our pleas were heard and not only can one follow monitor up to 30 accounts (not up to 35 - which was my need and wish), but the front end is also much improved.
I do think there's even more room for improvement, but I'm not going to be a grinch because the devs, 
So, before I properly begin, to them:
Because it's annoying to have to click through to previous posts (and I've learned that most people are lazy and don't, I'm including much of the explainer from that original post and am changing the updated information at the relevant points.
Register on Discord using this link. It takes you here:
Then, leave that channel and begin a private DM with F.R.I.D.A.Y BOT.
register your own account by typing:
/register

Then you type in your account handle.
You begin using F.R.I.D.A.Y. bot by monitoring your own account.

Here you can click the Hive tab and it takes you to another screen of clickable tabs or you can click on show all to get this:
Here you chose which operations from the selected account you’d like to monitor: your own and others’.
Personally, I’m not interested being notified for more than just posts for other folks’ accounts. For my own, I’d like to know about mentions and a couple of other things. Update the options accordingly.
Tips:
To discover a range of different commands, and for specifically following hashtags, go back to your F.R.I.D.A.Y bot DM and use the ubiquitous forward slash:

Scroll down and you'll find options like /monitortag, /words and a whole lot more.
As the bot is developed, I will try to keep this explainer updated. If the changes are minor and mostly intuitive, I shan't. If you think I should update and/or provide clearer explanations, please do let me know!
Until next time, be well
