      When posting in communities in the instance please follow the automation guidelines (Section 2 and 3 match the most) https://legal.programming.dev/docs/automation-guidelines/

      Notably the section that says 75% of recent content should be human created not automatic and accounts with automation should be marked as such

      It tends to make each individual post do worse as well when theyre spammed like this at once

      edit: Just saying this here for transparency, I removed half of the posts so that theres 9 now instead of 19. Leaving the rest this time but if theres more feed spam I would be reducing that to match the guidelines more instead of leaving a bunch like here (mods of the community can determine whether to handle this batch more but this clears up the general instance feeds)

        Hey. My bad I was testing something. This was not automatic though. There is approval moderation queue and posts are all human reviewed

          that still automatically pulls the content even if its manually reviewed which makes it go out much faster than any people manually making memes would be able to post at

          just space things out so youre not doing more than a couple a day here and dont just copy titles and stuff 1 for 1

      Add a source link toward old.reddit. Even if reddit is terrible, we shouldn’t stoop as low as not giving proper attribution.

      Also send git :3

        Ok. Duly noted. Again I was just testing something.
        You think 8k MAU is a chicken and an egg problem though? It seems like like there is no content so there are no users - I’m just trying to fix that is that ok if we bump lemmy userbase?

                When the original content is from is less important than when it’s posted here. Lemmys sorting algorithm isn’t very smart. When all of the posts are made in a batch it shows them all together. I don’t want to see pages of 90% one community.

                Once a day the top post from reddit? Great, I’m cool with that. 30 random ass posts from 2 days worth of reddit all within 20 minutes? Annoying as shit, awful. Don’t do that.
