It's not a bot reposting on reddit, it's a bot reposting things from reddit to the fediverse.
Ah lol, my bad. Yeah I haven't seen much of it but most of the sloppers and slopper instances have me blocked so maybe thats why. Or maybe nobody on my instance follows to any of the affected feeds.
Lucky.
They’re using the ignorance defense.
If they don’t use reddit how do they know is a repost?
(The answer is a little intelligence and a bit of common sense).
Nah i thought I was looking at a picture of reddit for a moment.
And I assumed an answer before I asked.
Why would they care? If it's useful stuff getting posted that's okay. If it's just a spammer flooding everything with low quality stuff treat them accordingly. The fact that the same posts exist on reddit is entirely irrelevant.
Because the culture is different and the crossposts are indiscriminate. A day ago he crossposted a meme about a woman being raped by her doctor after her credit card was declined, so she couldnt afford care.
Also because its disingenuous to crosspost things like "I had this experience!" without labeling it and have people engage with you earnestly because theyre here to be social, not knowing the title of the post is just an outright lie. That doesnt sit well to a lot of people and makes this space feel less human and sincere- one of the most meaningful attributes of the fediverse if you ask me.
The cultures of Lemmy and Reddit are 100% identical, right down to the weirdly entitled and aggressive commenters
Given that I find the culture of reddit miserable and the culture of the threadiverse generally much more human, social, and pleasant (albeit with the added flavor of the specific social dysfunction of chronically online leftists) I can't say I agree
And if the implication of your comment (totally fine if its not and you mean the point more broadly, subtext is hard over the internet) is that I'm being weirdly entitled and aggressive because I take issue with jokes about being raped because you can't afford medical care, I think that reflects a lot more poorly on you than on any aggressive or entitled vibes I may be giving
