It reminds me how Imgur is often discussing images that were uploaded for Reddit and OP will never know about all the comments.

    Surely people who want Reddit can go to Reddit and those who don’t want it won’t?

    Seems to me that bots cloning Reddit into Lemmy would mainly be imposing Reddit stuff on people who don’t want Reddit.

    I made a bot to repost official announcements for a game I play. Ideally, a day will come where the company makes the announcements themselves on Lemmy and my bot is no longer needed, but until then, the owner of the sub has granted me permission to use my bot.

    My bot makes about one or two posts per day. Other people in this thread have mentioned certain bots making posts every couple minutes, which many people would find quite excessive.
