MODERATORS
I think the strength of a community shouldn't primarily be built upon content another separate community or platform produces.
Now there are givens, like major news and art which "transcends" a singular platform. But repeatedly just lifting content from somewhere else (aside from if you are the creator yourself obviously and wanting to share to different platforms) and shipping it over here isn't a good look when Lemmy wishes to be a separate aggregator from Reddit.
