The problem is that it can fill up the new feed for new users, so they end up seeing a ton of posts with no interaction on them.
I personally don't feel mass cloning of content from reddit over to lemmy, is going to help build a community. This isn't stumbleupon.
While that may be true, the New sort is doomed already since it's filled with shitposts from Lemmy itself. If this bot disappears it'll be just beans.
Does it post anything to lemmy.ca?
Nope, I believe it's confined to communities on that instance.
