Looks to me like it does nothing but copy across posts from Reddit, none of which seem to ever get commented on.
I’m puzzled. Seems like an odd thing to do generally - am I missing something obvious about its purpose? Some benefit it provides (other than clogging up my ‘all communities’ feed 😛 )? Is it going to just stop dead when the API changes come in on Saturday?
I have mixed feelings towards the repost bots. I see no value in pure reposts from Reddit, but I also have no issue with them IF they only post on dedicated instances and mark the account it’s posting from as a bot. Those posts have no engagement and Reddit was already archived for posterity purposes.
In lemmit.online case it just scrapes the pages without an API so it will work even aftet July 1st.
