So, this isn’t meant to be a “guide” or anything but I thought it could be helpful to some.

  • Find yourself an RSS feed reader (e.g. Feedbin).
  • Grab your subreddit link. (Example: reddit.com/r/museum)
  • Add .rss to the end of that link. (Example: reddit.com/r/museum.rss)
  • Add your subreddit RSS feeds to your feed reader.

This way, you can keep reading reddit without having to visit it. You will still need an account to participate, of course.

But I asked myself this question: “Do I really want to participate and keep feeding reddit content for free?”

You are what makes reddit what it is. If you can be yourself elsewhere, why waste your precious time on reddit?

You deserve better.

    There are a ton of twitter bots that do exactly this already. I’ve seen a few mastodon bots do the same so I imagine it’s possible with lemmy as well.

    At worst, you could just set it up on mastodon and then have them automatically post to lemmy.
