Bond vs Dyno
Dyno is a moderation-first bot, configured as a list of modules you switch on in its dashboard. Every rule you want has to fit one of those modules.
We build Bond. Everything below about Dyno comes from its own public pages.
What Dyno is known for
Moderation and auto-moderation, configured in its own interface and switched on per feature.
What Bond does differently
Bond takes moderation rules as sentences rather than checkboxes, and every action is checked against the asking member's own Discord permissions and role position, so a mod can never use Bond to act above their level.
One sentence, instead of the panels.
@Bond Time out anyone posting invite links for an hour and log it in #mod-log
When to stay on Dyno.
Stick with Dyno if you want a fixed set of moderation modules and nothing making judgement calls.
It is good at moderation and auto-moderation, and there is no prize for switching a tool you are happy with. Add Bond for the jobs Dyno does not cover, and leave the rest where it is.
And if you do switch, in three moves.
Both bots can run at once. There is no import step and nothing to migrate.
Add Bond alongside
Dyno keeps doing exactly what it does today. Bond joins without touching a single existing setting.
Move one thing across
Pick the part you like least. Describe what it does to Bond, approve the changes, and watch it run for a week.
Turn the old one off
Only once the new one has run. Repeat for the next part, or stop here and keep both.
Try Bond on one thing this week.
Free to start, and nothing you have set up in Dyno changes when you add it.
