So, you're saying we need another bot to copy the comments too?
I'm working on that one! Fork of lemmit.online, so it doesn't need API access.
Don't worry about it spamming instances. This bot posts so much that it will be automatically blocked from any instance that uses the default Lemmy rate limits, so all bot deployments will have to run on an instance that is specifically for them.
Source code for the bot will be released on July 1st if Reddit doesn't introduce a breaking change on that day and if I don't receive a good argument as to why this bot will destroy the Fediverse.
But why? We can't interact with it at all? It's like copy pasting a book.
Would work better if it's both way. Bot bridging all the content from reddit to lemmy and vice versa. It might work for some smaller subreddits at least.
