MODERATORS
In addition to what other users said: quality matters. 90% of the content of any subreddit is trash, and bots are unable to sieve the 10% of good stuff from that trash. As such, most [all?] bots automatically bringing content from Reddit are bound to litter Lemmy and make it worse, not better.
The same applies to most users there, too. There are a few rational people there, and we should attract them to Lemmy if/when possible, but most redditors are dead weight and trash, and do a great favour to Lemmy if they stay in Reddit.
