Corrupted minds think alike
I’ve been toying with this idea at well. I don’t think it’s a good idea to scrape all content. This could drown out the lemmy-original content, especially when large subreddits are concerned. Maybe an upvote threshold (Only scrape if more than X upvotes) would be a good idea.
I would also scrape only the post itself, not the comments. Best to have our own organic discussions here.
Finally it should be very clear that a bot is posting these things. Ideally the bot would also ensure it is not re-posting something that was already posted by a Lemmy users just a bit earlier.
I’d send them a link to the instance I’m hosting lol. If I weren’t, I’d probably direct them to join-lemmy.org with the explanation that any instance showcased there is probably good enough.

…oh wait…
I’m a bit sad (mostly for the reasons you already described), but it’s also new and exiting. Interestingly, I’m having more fun here than I’ve had on Reddit in years. Not only was it cool to set up my own instance, I also notice I’m contributing far more then I ever did on Reddit. Maybe it’s because the communities are a bit smaller, so there’s a better chance of someone actually reading your comment.
I would expect Lemmy to show up equally in the search results if there is enough relevant content. My tiny tiny instance is already showing up in search results, crawlers can definitely find stuff on here. It would be great if at some point we can append “lemmy” to search queries to get the good stuff like we could with Reddit.
It also gives me timeouts and internal server errors from time to time. It was just migrated to another server, that might have something to do with it.
RCS could have been great if e2e were baked in from the start. Apple would not have had such a strong argument to stay with its own standard and we might not have found ourselves with this divide.
I’ve been using infinity for a while now and it’s fantastic. I would happily pay for it, if it weren’t for the fact that most of the money would go straight to Reddit.
It’s the Malinese top-level domain from what I can tell. As to why it is favored, I can think of two reasons:
Why would I? Lemmy is honestly a breath of fresh air, and if anything I feel like I should move away from social media hosted by big tech companies.
I’m doing all right myself, but I can’t say the same for my girlfriend. Headaches, tummyaches, backaches, or whatever random thing it is today, there’s always something. She’s a few years older than me so I guess I have something to look forward to lol.
