@asklemmy@lemmy.world Would you like a Reddit Bridge?
We already have a Twitter Bridge for Mastodon and an Instagram Bridge is being worked on by the same .makeup team / person.
Would you like to see Reddit Bridged / Mirrored so you could see the posts you’ve been ‘missing’ off here?
Yeah my use case would be for those smaller communities that are very user limited such as a reddit for my local area that I hate having to go back to just to check what’s going on with my local area.
Yeah, I can see that, but I kind of specifically like that what I see on Lemmy is at a more human pace and that I can talk to fellow Lemmings in any thread if I choose. Last year, some of the sports communities here were just bot-posting every single reddit topic and it was exhausting. It’s not that I think there’s no potential use case, just not compatible with how or why I use lemmy.
That is completely understandable… Would you say community based bots for those small use cases for certain people maybe make more sense than a full reddit bridge?
Yes, it needs to be on its own instance we can block.
I dunno. I guess? I’m not subscribing to any of them.
If this is a useful and interesting project for you, by all means go ahead and enjoy until and unless Reddit messes up your scraper or API access. Based on what I’m reading here though, I don’t think the more vocal lemmy users are really feeling it.
