Funny thing is, this is exactly what reddit wants. When it’s time to show the traffic after API shutdown they’ll show the traffic of all the users that are protesting, and guess what, it’ll be higher than before the API shutdown

Tracking, ads, money.

It’s interesting to see people talking about bots flooding some communities with content and others saying there’s not enough.
I created a bot, not to bring posts and comments from reddit but to use reddit as content curator, to bring links that were engaging there on to here.
However some people think theres a difference between users making a post with just a link to a news article or a bot doing it.
I think there’s a use for bots, when the content they bring is external to both reddit and lemmy, and discussion around it is organic.

Ah, the meta memes, we have evolved

Also this type of integration could be implemented, the projects are young enough to make big changes on how they work.

I think kbin has a good aproach to this, a completely different tab that allows you to make posts in the mastodon format. This could also be the case on lemmy some point, however I would understand if lemmy users don’t want this at all.

I understand, there’s many people that want nothing to do with a community like that, me included, but ultimately it will being attention to it, because some sympathize with these points of view. Hopefully the admins of shitjustworks take measures to make sure there’s no racism on their instance.

I think with time, compatibility between different services will become better, so far with lemmy limited compatibility and kbin with full compatibility, we are going in a good direction

I think this type of posts will have an opposite impact to what we want, we are just giving it the attention it needs to become what it was on Reddit, my recommendation? Block it immediately.

Then he shouldn’t get paid like all the mods

That makes sense

My question is: Why? When he was just focused on spaceX and Tesla very few times I would hear about this behavior (I might just live under a rock). But now that he is focused on Twitter it’s like he decided to be a piece of shit even more.

Hahaha, every post is either full of deleted comments or just locked, this is by far the most original one so far.

I have a crosspost bot, I’m mainly testing it and it’s purpose is to use reddit as link agregator to help small communities get some content going.
It only posts external links, never OC nor a link to reddit.

Also in my case the bot will get one post no older than 5 hours every hour, to prevent flooding with posts.

This is what I fear the most tbh

Meta’s incursion in the fediverse might cause very bad effects, there’s nothing preventing them from spitting add from their new platform to all other platforms compatible with it.
I really hope that if we come to that, admins will defederate immediately.

Also you can use my browser extension and just click on the icon:
Kbin Link for Chrome
Kbin Link for Firefox

A kbin API is in the works, if we manage to make it compatible with lemmy this app would be usable for kbin as well.

Great news!, if kbin implements a lemmy-like (which is being discussed) api this app would be entirely compatible as well!
