      Did the same with !dota2@lemmy.ml and same situation :) but it doesn’t matter, I’ve met some great people there :)

      I’ve noticed that there’s only a small percentage of overall people that I think have the “right” views about the world, and it’s totally fine that it’s only 1% of all people or whatever. As long as there’s one other person I think it’s all worth it, but in reality, there are likely millions, just hard to find them under billions.

      Have you tried promoting your community on the subreddit? People might not know about it. I occasionally visit the Czech Republic, definitely subbing to your community.

        I know, you’re probably Czech because you replied to my post in perfect Czech. Do you think your Reddit repost bot, while not 100% ethical, could help boost that community?

        To be honest, Reddit’s practices are even less ethical (process known as enshittification so I don’t really care if we break their TOS. Too bad they don’t allow direct i.redd.it image linking anymore, it was annoying even before I left it.

          Hmm, I think the bot works well for subs that are mainly a content feed so losing the comments isn’t a big deal (like eg. r/EarthPorn). But with r/Czech there is quite a lot of discussion so I’m not sure if reposting just the posts and losing the comments makes sense. I really don’t gaf about Reddot’s TOS, the thing I was ethically unsure about was if flooding Lemmy with Reddit reposts (ie. creating ‘fake activity’) wouldn’t be detrimental. But with !100yearsago@sh.itjust.works it seems to be going well.
          Also yes I am Czech (I can also speak a bit of German like you do).
