You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
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
0·1 year agoIt’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.
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.
I’m just glad this type of people will remain on reddit, don’t try to convince them to come here lol. Let them stay in that shitty place, it’s perfect for shitty people
0·1 year agoYup, I made it so it would only post links. In my opinion is not a good idea to let the bot take every post it finds.
Also it currently only posts 1 post at a time on each fetch so as to not flood the magazine and let users post by themselves.
If you want to crosspost content from reddit automatically use: https://github.com/daniel-lxs/BotIt,
It’s intended for links and I wouldn’t encourage using it for anything else cause you know, stealing content from others is not good.
But if you need a link aggregator for your community this might do it.Edit: this is a work in progress, so expect bugs.
Helpful to know! Thanks!
1·1 year agoHey kbin users if you want to block this domain just go to https://kbin.social/d/exploding-heads.com and block that domain there.
0·1 year agoCan you share the links to those? Thank you
How is lemmy preparing for it?
In my case is a cost one for sure, I just cant afford to pay for every single streaming platform, I pay for spotify no problem, all my music is in there.
