Result Routines ran with the PC off New Pinterest followers
u/ElmangougEssadik r/GrokBot ·
I have run some routines (cron jobs) regarding my Pinterest. I linked my bot to do saves/repins in certain niches to warm up my account and get more followers, but I closed the Grok bot app for two days, and I thought the posting would stop.
But I was impressed to find that the posting still runs even when I close my Grok bot app and shut down my PC. I asked Grok, and it said the routines run server-side. Man, this is so impressive!
I used to work with Claude Code, Codex, and Hermes (locally installed, not on a VPS), and the tasks stop when you close them or shut down your PC, but Grok bot didn't!
PS: I have new followers on my Pinterest account!
