Seeing low activity here, I was thinking of creating a bot which can bring content from /r/india. Here’s what I have in mind:
- Every hour, post top 30 posts from /r/india to /c/india
- Also cross-post comments from all the posts we cross-post i.e if someone posts a comment on reddit, post it here; and if someone responds to a comment here, re-post it on appropriate thread in reddit
What do guys think? Is it a good idea? In my mind it can help break content monopoly of reddit.
I can respect that. I was approaching the same thing from other side, if I can get everything from reddit here, I won’t need to visit Reddit. Perhaps I should invest in a RSS-reader kind of aggregator that can do that purely client side.
One thing you could do is setup a separate Lemmy instance for Reddit crossposts. Then lemmy.ml and other instances could decide to federate with that or not.
