feat: Adding Data Dashboard link to Slow Zone posts

[nathan-weinberg]

Fixes #15

@skaplan-dev I was able to kinda test this by putting the function somewhere unconventional and doing a dry run of the bot, but curious if you have a way to test this stuff so I could visualize how it looks?

@devinmatte not sure if there's anyway to future-proof this for V4, but if so feel free to advise 👍

no super great way to test this besides just printing things out locally. it might be worth us building a test Twitter bot for stuff like this. I'd actually prefer if we tweeted the dashboard link as a response to the tweet (open to debating this). We don't have great twitter meta tags that add nice visualizations for dashboard links.

v3 links will translate to v4 on launch. After launch we can update this bot to point to newer link formats

I'd def be open to that idea - I think visually it'd be more appealing - we might need to play with the bot logic since the reply scheme would work differently for Mastodon/Slack.

Another thing I was looking into was URL shorteners for the Dashboard links so they might look a bit better as part of the main tweet - we would probably need to sign up for a service like Bitly for that, the only native Python library I could find for that seems abandoned.

We should update this now with v4 links

LGTM. Maybe wait on @skaplan-dev to make sure we're ready to launch this

I tried to test this with the test Twitter bot but was unable to do so - would someone who configured the Prod bot be able to adjust the settings to allow for write access? Can share the keys via Slack if needed

Ofc we can always merge this and hope for the best 😄
