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.

      Honestly, I wouldn’t know where to begin, but if someone would be willing to help me, I don’t see why not!

          I might be able to do it for just my favorite communities, but yeah the big 20tb issue taking weeks is a dealbreaker for one person doing ALL of it.

          But if there was a way to make it easy to mirror a subreddit for an individual who owns a lemmy community… then maybe we could get something to work.
