After all that work they did to screenshot Twitter?

I don’t care. If there’s something important happening I’d like to know about it, and my reddit app is broken so you’d be doing me a favor. If it’s a bot doing it, then nah.

Its not reddits belongings, just take it, the users don’t care either. But, do never link reddit, not everyone has that shithole of a website on their block list.

Lemmy as a whole is at a growth at any cost period, if you can make a community more active, then go for it.

I wouldn’t know if it was on reddit. I don’t think it belongs to them anyway.

I remember when Digg and Reddit were equally competitive. People were taking stuff from one site and putting it on the other all the time (until Digg eventually died). I imagine it will soon be the case here.

There are bots that scrape content off of reddit and repost it here, so as far as actual consequences go I doubt there are any. Personally, I try to keep all of my content original, but then again I like the original places I’m trying to rebuild over here so YMMV.

I think it’s fine, even more so if you name who the original author is. I already created two clone subs and I plan on boosting them with a lot of stolen content from a bit everywhere until people join, if they do.

That being said, I’m new.

ideally, you wouldnt have to do it - but some communities have next to no content. I suppose, provide credit where credit is due, etc.

Fuckin’ do it

I’d rather see it because I’m trying to use reddit less, so it’d be nice if cross posters shared some good ass content

The majority of stuff on reddit is “stolen” in the first place.

I encourage it as long as you’re not claiming to be the original poster.

I do attribution and link back via libreddit to the source.
