Idk if it’s possible, but if someone with the resources to make a bot that slowly clone reddit posts to Lemmy, so instead of searching for “something + Reddit” we could search for “something + Lemmy”, that would be the end of Reddit, at least for me.
I’m 100% on lemmy now, but occasionally when i need to troubleshoot my PC I still have to search on Google for Reddit posts and I hate myself for giving reddit traffic.
I miss the 2 dozens Cat Subs that flooded my feed with Cat memes and funny cat pics everyday. If anyone knows about any cat subs on Lemmy please reply here.
I am working on a bot that clones posts from reddit to lemmy
It’s for a community that wants to have a backup on lemmy in case reddit goes to complete shit
But wouldn’t we this way end up with a lemmy that is full of shit from reddit?
This can be done by periodically scraping a subreddit. I have a working script that can do this for a subreddit that I follow. There’s a few more things that I need to do before I can open source it
I think it would be a good thing if social media platforms had a field to put a (free) license for one’s posts. I would immediately put mine under one. We do not live in that world.

That is a good way to get sued for copyright infringement
Aaah yes, the Internet where all info is closed behind steel doors and can’t be shared.
Exactly what the inventors planned.

Aren’t all reddit comments under CC?
Not to my knowledge. There are websites where that is the case, like most wikis and Stack Exchange, but not reddit.
