I started working on a script that will take top post from subreddits to post then to corresponding c/ on lemmy with various accounts to give the impression of minimal activity.

The idea comes from a lemmy user etting saying they would never want to support reddit with lemmy content (or in general), and instead just taking the content from there and putting it on lemmy.

It feels like I'm just kinda sewing lemmy into the human centipede that is content filler. I can see why content does get reposted it's entertaining and engaging and they propagate.

It does feel like a Pandora's jar like I'm laying a foundation for a bot army even though I only plan to be small scale

Isn‘t the Reddit front page full of reposted older threads by bots anyway? That repost bot would repost reposts of other bots then. I am not sure what this would accomplish other than turning Lemmy into yet another soulless content mill.

Build niches, plus people do like the content that get reposted
