I don’t think bot link posts are good for this platform. I think original content is useful, but links back to Reddit just makes this the shittiest possible Reddit client. Best case scenario it clogs the feed, worst case it actively pushes people back towards Reddit. If anyone disagrees, please let me know why.
It would be nice to have this content being posted to the Fediverse instead of Reddit, but we aren’t there yet. So while some can be posted here without linking to Reddit, like memes, other posts can’t be done as easily.
These other posts are someone’s original content, and should be attributed as such. In time I hope they will start posting it here as well as Reddit (and eventually, just here) but until then this is the best compromise. We should not be stealing and reposting content here without attributing the authors of that content. That’s just bad form.
