Something to think about. It is pointless to interact with any of those posts directly here, so as a result they get no engagement. They’re just links to Reddit, and I feel like they’re just funnelling engagement back there. I can’t help but notice, possibly incorrectly, that activity here sharply dropped as soon as that bot went active.

If we want the content here, wouldn’t it make more sense to pull non self post content directly and post it as a first class Lemmy post here without linking to the reddit post?

If our goal is to make this the new Monero home, wouldn’t a better approach be adding this site to the sidebar on the subreddit, or having automod inform every poster about it’s existence? Is moving here even our goal anymore?

      Yeah, I like this idea too. I don’t mind the @RSS reddit scraped posts, but for those that don’t I assume someone could build a bot or script to collect them into one daily or weekly post this way. If it is a separate bot or profile from the current @RSS one each user could block one or both as desired.
