So, I get that someone is trying to populate this community with posts using the lemmit.online bot. And that the vast majority of us are coming from Reddit. And that AITA is a staple community that we’re used to seeing in our feeds.
However, it seems like that just copying content into an otherwise empty community is just feeding a sterile wasteland. There is almost no engagement on the copied posts, and worse: I think it will smother any actual new content that gets posted in this wasteland of copied content. (I stand corrected, after trying to post this there I found out that only mods have priveleges to post. It’s worse than I thought, and I’ll probably just block it from my feed if it’s only a Reddit echo chamber)
What do you think, AITA?
Well there’s no karma. It’s more genuine here.
See that up arrow near all the posts and comments?
That’s points, there’s no karma attached to you, therefore nothing to farm. You don’t need to worry about posting something potentially bad because you don’t think “FUCK MY KARMA’S GOING TO TAKE A HIT, I SHOULDN’T POST THAT” you also don’t post something like “AITA for getting mad that my gf killed my dog after winning a video game” because that would be a karma farm. There’s a counter on Reddit, not on Lemmy, for how many points you got over all of you comments and posts.
Peace
Well, this post netted OP over 400 non existent points.

Untrue. I have a growing number of “karma” points based on posts and comments when I look at my account.
Op has almost 400 comment karma and 30+ post karma. There’s enough to farm.
