I think reposts from reddit could be really beneficial for lemmy , cause part what made reddit great was that it was basically a content libary, that had the answers to a lot of questions and in turn drove people to the side. On lemmy we still have to build that libary

I agree. Imo a lot of the hate for reddit reposts is because repost bots are either posting content too quickly or pulling from new instead of top. Lemmy's not ready for an influx of bad content, so you gotta curate it.

I've slowly been rebuilding https://lemmy.ml/c/dccomics at 1-2 posts a day. That way there's always something in top/day but it won't flood a user's feed. I'm also not reposting top/day from reddit in case there's users that still use both.
