It litters people's feeds with content devoid of interaction that there's no point in interacting with. It funnels them back to Reddit. It is a mistake.
If you can get the content of a post and post it, that's good. RSS bots are cool. If you can pull the image/link and title from reddit and post it you've got a good recipe. Right now I'm seeing a lot of lemmit and other bots just posting straight links to reddit posts, this is a counterproductive waste of time.
