Is there some sort of bridge similar to what is seen with Matrix and services like Discord and Messenger, but with Lemmy and Reddit so that users who are moderators of both communities can make it easier for enjoyers of one subreddit to switch?
Edit: What I am looking for is almost a live version of RedditLemmyImporter that would allow you to bridge the two communities.
Shameless plug: have you seen [email protected] @lemmit.online?

It’s not entirely what you asked for, but I haven’t seen anything that’s like it either.
Are posts made to those communities added back into Reddit?
No, it’s a one way sync.
Uh, that’s gonna be hard to do with Reddit ending it’s API
I wonder how hard it will be to just scrape the HTML to accomplish this. It’d be a bit of a cat-and-mouse game, but you’d probably get pretty far just using Google’s user agent string. I kind of think Reddit wouldn’t actually care about scraping vs API access, since all of Reddit’s dumbfuckery seems to be coming from spez panicking due to investor pressure, and I’d bet investors don’t have the faintest idea what “scraping” is.
