Hey guys. Im trying to fully move to lemmy.
Unfortunately many subreddits I was using - are not represented on lemmy. So I figured I would just sync content from reddit for those communities - so I scripted auto-reposter of top most popular reddit posts to lemmy.

but. im running into issues.

Lemmy communities that sometimes 0 content with last content sometimes posted 2 years ago - they ban me for “spam” when I auto post content even if their lemmy communities literally have no content…

This community just banned me, last post in that community was 2 years ago:
https://lemmy.ml/c/buildapcsales

What are they even moderating?
I cannot make this shit up.

Anyways - I would rather do my own server then deal with mods worse than on reddit that actually allows that.

Starting lemmy server - which hardware to get? Dedi? ram? cpu?
What does lemmy.world uses? Thank you.

      hey thats your opinion and you are entitled to it.

      me - I will choose reddit reposts on lemmy, while using good lemmy apps without ads over empty lemmy community.

      at least there is a build out chance

        Such an awful idea. Again, reddit got big because people posted, not because a bot grabbed crap from another discussion site.

        So simply post things.

          not working. look lemmy is 5+ years old. its pretty stagnant. we need explosive growth for people to start leaving reddit.

            Do you remember reddit at 5? Its not that much different. Why would you want to bring all the garbage that is reddit here?

            Just post, generate a community. Thats how it works.

            You can have your own site that is just a mirror of reddit, but that effectively empty users and/or garbage posts. People leave reddit beacuse it sucks, and now you want to jump straight to making lemmy suck.

              all the garbage that is reddit her

              just use filtering. just auto repost most upvoted content.

              Just post, generate a community. Thats how it works.
              I dont have the amount of time to redo all that work that people that post to https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/ already done. this is absolutely pointless menial work nobody wants to do

            Yeah, but it first has to be more user accessible. Its not as user friendly as a site like Reddit to just log in and get going.

            Bots just posting Reddit are not what the site needs. If people here wanted Reddit, theyd be on Reddit. Honestly super simple to understand that

              . If people here wanted Reddit, theyd be on Reddit.

              we are tired of playing cat and mouse with reddit.
              I want reddit content , just not on reddit

              its that simple - not everyone is like you
