    So, OP is a bot, right? They have no comments and only posts. Where are they scraping these posts from? I’m really not a fan of repost bots, I gotta say.

      I think there are a lot of people cross-posting stuff to generate traffic and discussion

        Yep and it’s a great idea. People are just starting to collect their karma and this is a great way to do it.

        Yeah there are some bots that scrape Reddit and some that aggregate RSS feeds into communities. I’m kinda not on board as most post are getting very little engagement.

        It’ll be interesting to see how that all plays out…

          Kind of a chicken or an egg problem - we need content to attract the people, the people are attracted to content.
