I don’t like or trust NFT’s and honestly, I don’t think anybody else should for the most part. I feel the same about a lot of new crypto. But I don’t necessarily distrust blockchain because of that. I think it has its own set of problems, in that where the record is kept is important and therefore a target. We already have problems with leaks of PII. Any blockchain database that stores the data to ID people will be a target too.

I doubt it specifically because when joining a new instance you’re making a new account.

Does this include past posts or just new posts being mirrored from reddit to Lemmy?

Ah. Then it’s basically not as useful as the use case I was expecting. Sorry about that. I misunderstood.

So, correct me if I’m wrong. But does that mean there has to be a Lemmy community that is synchronous to the subreddit in order to be mirrored?

Right. But what I am saying is that even if I turned the setting off and was seeing the bots how would I only see the bits and pieces I wanted from reddit and not the whole of the reddit website mirrored?

Love the idea for subreddits I can’t find a Lemmy sub for. But I don’t want all the rest. I specifically went out of my way to block seeing bots on Lemmy. I don’t think there is a way to opt in to seeing just one and even if there was I don’t see how I would transition that into only seeing bots for the subs on reddit I’d still want to engage with. I don’t understand how you’re planning to manage this?

Worth is kind of not a one size fits all thing. It’s subjective. But I dunno. That depends on how big or small it gets. I don’t think bigger is necessarily worse. I don’t think Reddit is all bad either.

Perhaps you’re involved in the wrong communities? Generally smaller more niche communities have higher engagement and effort posts.

Ignore the people who don’t give the quality you want. Some of us work ridiculous hours and are trying to decompress from everything going on around us. Some of us don’t have the energy for the kind of quality you want. You’re basically suggesting that they don’t contribute at all, and that leads to isolation. They may want to engage with people. They may not have people around them to engage with. Excluding them over “low effort” comments that you can ignore is kind of meh.

Do you want engagement or not?
