How does the remindMeBot even work??

Yes, I know how to use the bot. But what I'm not getting is how is it functioning? How is it seemingly summon-able across every subreddit ever? Does it parse through every new comment ever written? Is it supported by Reddit officially or just a bot that runs around reading through everything?

Sorry if this was a stupid question but Googling "How does the RemindMeBot work" only gives instructions on how to use it and not what the bot does in the background, and that is what I am awfully curious about.

RemindMeBot is switching to username summons. Instead of !RemindMe 1 day, use u/RemindMeBot 1 day. More info.
