Genuine question.

There are tons of niche subs on Reddit that aren’t on Lemmy or don’t have enough people posting. Lemmy could benefit from bots that automatically post Reddit content. Why is this not a thing?

    Reddit sucks. Ads. App sucks. Can only use the official app. Mods suck.

    I moved to Lemmy for a reason. But I don’t want to miss out on the content because there is barely any here.

      I used to like cocaine, but I hated the addiction and I hated what it did to my nose.

      But here’s the thing: you can’t have cocaine without the side effects. So I chose to stop cocaine. It’s less fun in the short term, but getting your life back together and enjoying the simple pleasures in life more than make up for it in the long run.

      You need to choose Reddit with the side effects, or no Reddit and work on making Lemmy fun. You can’t have the Reddit hit without the side effects.

      But if you put in the effort of trying to make Lemmy fun, it’ll be more rewarding, and it will help rebuild worthwhile communities away from Reddit for the benefit of everybody.

      Up to you.

        Why so passively aggressive?

        My answer is: Ads, shitty company, shitty mods, shitty app, breaking third-party apps gave me the rest.

        Why did you move here? Surely you didn’t move here because you wanted less content and less subs, or do you?
