Hey folks -
It’s no secret that I created this community to replace the shittyfoodporn sized hole that was in my heart when I migrated from reddit to Lemmy. We’ll probably never be as big or active as they are, and that’s fine. There’s nothing wrong with being a small community and I certainly don’t want to mod like 2 million people.
I’ve been popping my head into reddit every now and then to check on the drama and I noticed that /r/shittyfoodporn has un-privated itself.
So my question to this community: would you like to see some content from reddit reposted here (for example, some of the top posts on /r/shittyfoodporn) to increase the amount of content in /c/shittyfoodporn or would you rather that we take a slower and more organic approach to things and only showcase the food of our members here on Lemmy?
I’ll sticky this post for a while. Feel free to use the upvote/downvote as a makeshift polling option (upvote = yes reddit content, downvote = only Lemmy content) or just drop a comment in this thread.
Personally I would have no qualms with people scraping all of Reddit and rehoming the content. Anything to make Reddit irrelevant more quickly is always morally correct
Agreed
