Are we ashamed? Or are we entertained?

As long as it’s not automated and spammy, i’m game.

I'd say just copy the URL and make a new post here, not link to r/austin.

Posting something you found somewhere else is the majority of content here and on Reddit.

If it promotes more discussion, I'm all for it 😬

As an analogy, I go to r/spacex, see important things that are being mentioned, and post it in [email protected] with a link to the original tweets or articles or whatever. Wikipedia may say

the name "Reddit" is a play-on-words with the phrase "read it", i.e., "I read it on Reddit."

but for a good number of posts, you could describe them as "I read it somewhere and decided to post it here".
