I'm confused, bringing posts from Reddit seems like a waste of time, no-one replies, it's extra, unnescessary load for the servers. Why is this tolerated?

I guess some people miss the content from Reddit. IMO it's not really necessary at all.

By the way, when you say "here", do you mean you found some lemm.ee community doing this? Or are you talking about lemmit?

I haven't seen any egregious offending bots here on Lemm.ee. All the bots I've blocked have come from Lemmy.World so far.

I agree that it's not necessary and as a refugee I would far prefer to see fewer, but more quality posts with actual engagement. Recreating the current Reddit experience also recreates the current Reddit issues. I've found more legitimately interesting things in the past couple of weeks here than I have in a long time on Reddit so far.
