MODERATORS
Can you have this post to an existing lemmt community? Like, pipe /r/WoT to wheeloftime@lemmy.ml?
The posts that are mirrored from Reddit should stay on their own communities. Otherwise you’re getting artificial content, likely with no participation.
If it’s interesting enough, someone will repost it and start conversation.
I disagree. This content is largely no different than content posted directly to lemmy by actual users. People will subscribe, comment, up/downvote, and it will not be different in any meaningful way. It's just a great wellspring of content to me.
I mostly agree, but there is a risk of overwhelming the new and relatively small communities of fediverse with a lot of links without any comments/discussion. Is there a way to filter the content according to their reddit ratings. That would help fetching more interesting stuff.
It would stand to reason that if there is discussion on the original reddit thread, that it would also generate discussion here too.
Community is much smaller on this side of the fence, though.
Honestly reddit is about 100 times too big now. Most comments on major threads go unseen. It was plenty big enough 16 years ago for lots of good discussion, way better than today to be honest. Now it's just about who can get the quickest quip in. Actual discussion is pretty lacking on reddit.
If you visit Lemmit.world, you can post requests and they will go into a community in Lemmit.world. It's been set up as a sort of Reddit mirror, and people can subscribe to those communities from across the rest of the Thrediverse.
I think if you wanted to pipe into an existing community then you'd probably be looking at running a Bot yourself that can post the content directly into that community in the same way. It may be worth asking on Lemmit.world to see what is involved, but also on lemmy.ml to see if that is an acceptable thing to be trying on that instance.
