Can't create a comment on the recent poll, so I will make a post. (self.General)

I'd say that we should not mirror Reddit comments if our comments will not be mirrored to the subreddit. It will not allow for Lemmy users to give their thoughts on the sub's posts because it would be hard to find Lemmy comments. But afaik, the mirror only saves posts for 15 to 30 days? With that restriction, it might be slightly pointless to not mirror comments.

I would like to be able to cooperate with the people on Reddit, but it might not be a good idea to mirror Lemmy posts/comments either because Reddit might crack down on it. Hoping for screencaps though.

If you wanted to see comments from Reddit, you could go to Reddit directly or use a privacy front-end like Redlib. (If you are gonna use that, I'd recommend the LibRedirect add-on!)

I mean, if you click the credit comment link looks like (randomletters) it would take you straight to the thread and you can read the comments.

It seems that people don't like the bot? (https://lemmy.world/comment/15511656)

I'm generally new to owning an account on ActivityPub, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

I think most of them just don't like the comment spam, its turned off duplicating comments for now. There is no point duplicating Lemmy comment to Reddit. Its better to have a community here.

Another suggestion: have the attribution to OP in the post body. The lemmit.online bot does this, and it makes the mirroring a lot cleaner.

Makes sense. We would be working on it!

Edit: Done

I agree.
