keep fossabot for spam filters, commands, timers and channel points.
its chat alerts and crouton both thank raids, subs and follows. turn those off in fossabot, or keep its raid and sub alerts and type !bot off raids and !bot off subs. keep its cheer alerts: crouton doesn't thank cheers.
got a !lurk or !so command in fossabot? keep one: delete it there, or type !bot off lurks or !bot off shoutouts.
CroutonChats is its own account, and it waits its turn when chat's busy.
