Replicating reddit content from AITA
Replicating reddit content from AITA
Hi all,
What's your opinion on the repost bot in the AITA community? From my perspective, it provides little to no value to cross post such content from another website.
First of all, AITA lives off the comments and if there aren't any, it's not really entertaining to read the posts.
Second, if someone hypothetically replied here, it would never reach the OP on reddit, so it's not meaningful to make the effort.
And last but not least, if there are sometimes dozens of reposts per hour here, it drowns any interesting original content on Lemmy.
So overall I guess it brings more harm than good.
PS: Originally I planned to post this in the AITA community directly but ironically it's locked down to "mods only". So there's not even a chance to have there any original content.
Regards, rbn

I don't think I like the idea. I've come across too many posts elsewhere that describe strategies for using AITA, JUSTNOMIL, etc., to get enough karma quickly to enable new alt accounts to post elsewhere on Reddit where minimum Karma scores are enforced. I don't want fake shit here even if that means we have less content.
Absolutely and these posts dont get much replies, why would I reply to a bot instead of OP. The bot wont reply and won't know anything about the original.
