Great plan what could go wrong?
Would be cool if there was some way to migrate the posts on reddit to lemmy just all together. My initial thought is to make the posts tied to the op while also filtering based on karma and overall interaction to skip over duplicates and spam. Just making it tied to the op is the part I have no clue on how itll work.
Where you gonna spend your upvote points? At the points store?
Bro there is no karma/points here. If thats what you wanted
Yes
Would I be worth it/possible to basically copy all of Reddit’s content into Lemmy? Most of Reddit’s usefulness to me is that practically any problem I encounter, I google google the question + Reddit and find a post with the answers I need. I’m sure I’ll be able to do that with Lemmy in a few years but for now 🤷♂️
Why though? I’ve got no problem when Google sometimes leads me to an old reddit post. No need to have them all duplicated on lemmy. Let’s just make lemmy the place for the new content
All excellent ideas. I just didn’t want to lose all the content I created over the 10 years being on Reddit. Not to mention all the great post I saved and even comments I created. And some others created and I saved.
Because they had made a great quote, or list of books I should read. Want to save all that content.
In any case I would definitely look into backing these up for you personally.
I am not too fond of the idea of pumping old reddit content out onto lemmy (you couldn’t recreate the entire threads by yourself anyways).
BUT, I too have a post or two that I like a lot and would love to be on lemmy too. I know it’s a bit more work, but maybe create a summary post of the topic in a fitting sublemmy. That way you do transfer the knowledge and make it accessible again AND you create a new high-quality piece of content for this community. It may not be new to the world, but it will be new to basically anyone over here! Reddit is so vast, stuff just gets buried and most people never saw it.
