I’m curious to get everyone’s thoughts on opportunities to improve!

    An single sided interactive mirror of Reddit’s communities.

    It would be lovely to have all that content directly available right here.

    And to be able to discuss the content with other Lemmy users.

    But without being able to discuss / send back to the Reddit users.

      This has been tried, but there’s so much more reddit content that nobody can comment on it from here and start a good conversation. Plus many people came here to escape that.

        Fair, a lot of dumb toxicity on Reddit.
        Perhaps only syncing posts and not comments could be a good idea?

      There’s an instance lemmit.online that mirrors reddit content and you can subscribe to the communities.

      Like others said, there is so much content it’s hard to get conversations going, it works better to cross post interesting content to a lemmy community.

        Thank you! :)

        Sadly a lot of the small/niche sub Reddits I miss on Lemmy aren’t synced (e.g. MysteryDungeon, ModdedMinecraft and Palworld), some exist here, but the activity on them is quite small.

        However I did find [email protected] on there ^

        Sadly it doesn’t appear to play nicely with the Eternity app I use to browse Lemmy though :/
        It works now, guess it only syncs posts since you’re subscribed though! :)

        Still appreciate the info though!

          Yes, it’s a lemmy thing that when the first personnel on your instance subscribes, it takes like a page of posts and then only the new ones going forward.

          Lemmit.online used to have a way to add new subreddits, but it seems they have stopped accepting new ones. Must have got a bit too big to handle.

          Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

      That’s basically what [email protected] is. There are others in the same vein though I don’t know how active they are. Some of them are even automated but I feel like Lemmy hates bots more than most other social media platforms and have blocked them so communities that use bots to fill out content are largely ignored.

        I was more hoping on being able to read niche/small sub Reddits straight on Lemmy

        Since most of them don’t exist here yet / have much less content
