What is the etiquette on shamelessly stealing from Reddit to post here? (lemmy.intai.tech)

By "here" I mean all of the Fediverse, but more specifically sh.itjust.works; I don't want to cause any bad vibes in my new home instance.

I don't NORMALLY post, and I'm limiting my access to Reddit in favor of Lemmy, but if stealing from the rich is acceptable, I'm happy to occasionally Robin Hood content over; I just prefer my theft to be within prevailing ethical guidelines.

Thanks!

Interesting to see my question cross-posted, but I appreciate the wider audience.

What are your thoughts on the subject, manticor?

we are still dealing with sync issues, I replied to your main thread earlier today, some people see it, but I dont when viewing from that instance. Growing pains.

Post was:

"depends, a lot of whats on reddit came from elsewhere, sometimes from years before. I dont feel any need to credit reddit for anything like that I grab, if its new and a post unique to the site, I bring it over as an ARCHIVE and link it."

I often repost things to my Meta sub to inform the users coming over to our little corner. Things like "what folks think about reposting reddit content" very relevant, and ty!
