pretty telling that first reation of some here can be summed with: what is really white?

Imagine defending a reddit repost bot :).
I did no such thing
They don’t seem like a bot. Rather someone who still browses reddit and decides to share some things here (without direct linking). I see no problem in sharing a few things a day.
They’re a bot.
Maybe they are, I haven’t done a deep investigation, but to what end? What do they have to gain? Moreover, the content gets appreciated by users here who are ostensibly not bots.
I enjoyed some posts and would not know they were copied from reddit without you. It’s not like they even originated from there. Plus as far as I know there’s no direct linking. What’s the harm?
You and both have invested a lot of time in this space over the last few years: fedi/threadiverse is still so small yet gaining new users all the time. Don’t you think having more content uploaded here that people genuinely engage with is an overall good thing?
I get it, I gave up looking over there when they killed my apps. I’m happier (and less addicted) here than I was before. But still, I know there are probably some big things I miss out on by getting my fix from more obscure sides of the net. Someone willing to wade through and find gems in the mess is someone that’s valuable to have here.
Think of !greentext@sh.itjust.works
It’s a curation.
You might enjoy mindless upvoting content that was mindlessly reposted but not everyone does.
That’s a fair point.
I just think it’s a lot of effort. If it’s worth it to you then ignore me.
I just can’t personally imagine spending the required time on reddit.
To take a screenshot?
To browse reddit
I only go on to take a screenshot.
