As someone who can't code, I spent some time vibe coding a python bot that would take screenshots of a webpage and post them to Discord, but after an hour of creating more errors with each iteration, I gave up. I rather just get someone skilled and pay them for it as opposed to wasting time with something that thinks it's always right
If it's for personal use and hobby stuff, you could try to learn and code it yourself!
Knowing how to make scripts yourself for specific small tasks is a useful skill, and since it's for yourself you don't need to stress about getting too deep into it :)
If you are an absolute beginner I can recommend "Python 4 everybody".
Edit: added a link incase someone is interested.
Appreciate it!
