What it does: The same thing as lemmit.online, but it copies the comments of the original Reddit post to Lemmy as well. How to use: Set up a Lemmy instance and make the rate limit very high (I’m happy to make a detailed guide on this if it’s needed) Create an account for the bot Create a Lemmy community that will store the crossposts Download the bot’s code from Github Edit the files named .env and config.yaml so the program knows the bot’s username, password, what subreddits to fetch content from, and how often Run the program Done!
