I’m curious if anyone here actually finds value in the reddit posts brought over by lemmit.online, since I’d like to defederate from it otherwise.
It feels actively harmful to lemmy, since so many of the posts it brings over are questions that the original poster will never see. It encourages a conversation that will never happen, so if someone does reply they’re going to feel disengaged.
The bot rarely gets any upvotes or engagement, and I suspect a majority of people (like myself) have just blocked it. TBH I forgot it existed until Tesseract showed me its posts again.
Nope, maybe last year during the api debacle you could argue that it had some value, but since then and now the content itself on reddit is just getting shitty exponentially, browsing reddit literally feels like the dead internet to me.
The few subs I still go to are very clearly overrun by AI posts and comments.
