MODERATORS
Legal, probably. Bad taste? Yeah, definitely. I get the idea, but the people who are still posting over there having their shit just get copied over here is going to give people a bad impression of the fediverse. If the fediverse is strong enough to replace reddit, then it can stand on its own and make it's own unique stuff.
Have you been paying attention to Reddit content for the past I don’t even know how many years? It’s all TikTok and twitter reposts, and before that it was 9gag and 4chan reposts. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what op is asking if the past is anything to go off of
But do we want Lemmy to be reposts of Reddit which is reposts of TikTok, Twitter, 9gag, and 4chan? I'd say fresh content here would be the best foot forward to start with!
Its a link aggregator. If the content is good then post it here. Including links to interesting reddit threads.
I mean the beauty of the fediverse is you can have your cake and eat it too in this scenario. If someone wants to spin up an instance that’s just reposts that duplicate communities elsewhere, you could selectively subscribe to both or only the one without reposts.
True, I guess it's an "if you don't like it, don't look at it" sorta thing
