lemmit.online does that already actually, if you're interested in it
Noob question perhaps, but why is there a separate instance that does this instead of communities doing this one on one? For example, Lemmy/c/nba could auto-replicate new posts from Reddit/r/nba, no?
The issues remain.
Most of the posts on Reddit nowadays are low quality and/or rage baiting. Most of the users don't want those replicated.
And if the questions are replicated, the person asking the question will never see the comments.
Most instances wouldn't want a reddit bot using up their resources, so it would be best for them to have their own separate instance.
