GriddleBot vs Nightbot

A Nightbot alternative that also covers Kick.

Nightbot is a long-running free chat bot for Twitch and YouTube (plus Trovo and SOOP), but it does not support Kick and has no loyalty points. GriddleBot is free too, and covers Kick, Twitch and YouTube at once with moderation, commands, a loyalty points economy and cross-platform analytics.
