What's stopping us from using the api to post all of reddit here in a massive one-time merger?

Obviously the Lemmy devs would have to do it, but would there be legal issues? I think it would solve most of the problems with Lemmy, really.

I feel like Lemmy would be a much more interesting space if it was able to grow more organically and find other communities and links, that aren’t only linked to Reddit.

Exactly. I feel like this is one of those instances of "We're spending time thinking about whether or not we could, when we should be thinking about whether or not we should."
