It reminds me how Imgur is often discussing images that were uploaded for Reddit and OP will never know about all the comments.

    Yeah, at least if it’s everything. I don’t necessarily mind if content from Reddit is being recycled to here, as long as it’s sparingly selected. By a human or maybe by a bot if the content passes through certain thresholds (X amount of upvotes or something, idk).

      I say allow it if it can be opted out. Having a ‘repost’ or ‘bot’ tag, and a filter would solve it for me.
      But it might be a lot of work to implement.

        Lemmy actually has this feature already. Accounts can mark themselves as a bot and also whether they see bot accounts. Because of that, I can’t imagine it would be a lot of work to implement on kbin.

          Yeah you can filter out bot accounts but presumably there maybe other types of bot posts that might be relevant or interesting. I’m still so new to Lemmy that I don’t know yet so I’m hesitant to block them all like that

          That’s pretty cool. If it works for threads as well as messages, it does solve one of my main gripes with reddit.
