On Mastodon there are some bots that automatically re-post the content from Twitter on the instance. So people from Mastodon can see the Twitter’s content.

What do you think about that?

    I think it works great for Mastodon because all content is opt-in unless you explicitly go to the federated/show me all posts tab. Mirroring reddit content here would bury all original Lemmy content

      It would definitely clog up /c/all for sure, but I spose if it was limited to a single community, it might be bearable. We still don’t hove community or user blocking / muting tho.

        BTW do you authorize users to make cross-posts from reddit. For example. If I like a post on reddit, copying the content and getting it on Lemmy (manually)?

          We don’t have cross-posting from reddit, you can put a reddit link in the post url I guess.
