If the content feed is what's valuable and can be reposted to Lemmy, it gives people one less reason to stay on Reddit.
No it doesn’t. Comments and engagement are what drives communities and the bots kill that. Someone pops in from Reddit, sees nothing but shit from Reddit? They’re gonna go back to Reddit. It’s fucking asinine.
This, 100%. I'd rather see 10 posts with a bunch of comments than 150 posts with no comments.
I can get news anywhere.
Especially with the frequency that these repost bots post, it's just drowns out real posts and makes lemmy look like a bot farm.
Repost pots are kinda my personal hatred on Lemmy, my block list is ridiculous
Can't wait for instance blocking so zerobyte or whatever the repost instance is called can be removed from my life forever.
Zerobyte and Lemmit
For what it's worth, many apps like Boost and Sync can do this locally.
Oooo that's certainly a handy feature.
You're entitled to your own opinion, but you seem to be assigning your opinion to me as well.
I didn't leave reddit because the content was bad. I left because they stopped supporting mobile apps. That seems to be why most people left to be honest.
Lemmy is my one stop shop for news and social media. If there were not news stories being reposted from Reddit then Lemmy would not be a suitable reddit replacement.
No one is assigning their opinion to you. We each have our own competing opinions which we are advocating for.
If you stop the bots, actual people will start posting actual content like an actual community.
