Good question! I dont really know how I'd feel about this.
On the one hand, for me to be ok with it it needs to be CLEAR that its a bot reposting reddit content, maybe even if its limited to specific communities for the sake of archiving.
On the other, I do want lemmy to be distinct and I am curious to see where it will end up. I also feel like we shouldn't be trying to emulate reddit exactly, as that would mean we also get the crappy parts as well. Also, that would be limiting. Who knows what lemmy can become? Why limit it to being reddit 2.0, you know?
