I think it’s great that so many people want to build and grow Lemmy, but why are we doing it by copying over Reddit content? It didn’t seem as bad when it was funny pics or memes or whatever, but now I’m seeing discussion threads, which doesn’t make sense to me.

I can kind of see it if a Reddit mod decides to move their forum from there to here, and wants to start with their existing content, but otherwise I’m not sure this is a good thing.

What do you guys think?

    With c/Titanfall, we’re using the lemmit bot to re-post some of the stuff from reddit to lemmy.

    We’re curating what exactly makes it to the new community, but it’s a short term way to have some content to get started with.

    Long term, I would not want it to continue
