Great plan what could go wrong?
Why the manual labor?? Let’s better make a bot to do the job… Oh no.
Yea, what’s to stop me from creating a bot to ping the Reddit API, grab the top posts from a sub, check for duplicates, then repost to Lemmy using their API.
Granted, I’m making many an assumption here.
If you use a personal api token that only you are using it shouldn’t have enough usage to cost anything
Even if it did cause an issue. Web scrapping is viable too
Is “scrapping” autocorrect, a typo, or intended? Not meaning to be rude just interested because I’ve only heard of “web scraping” but often see people write “scrapping”.
I hope poemforyoursprog makes the jump.
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?
