    Is this not effectively a link aggregation site? Why do you care if the links are bespoke human entered data? People keep bitching about this and it makes no sense to me at all

      I think it’s an important difference if the bot posts are grabbed from (say the all time top posts from that sub in Reddit) vs reposting from the same Lemmy community.

      One helps preserve a historical top posts for others to enjoy if the primary community goes dark (or the image/video hoster link expires), the other just adds annoying repetitiveness.
