I have a question? Why are there so many links to reddit on lemmy? We need our own content and not just bots linking to subreddits.

I just went to all, and sort by new. Seems to be someone linking directly to subreddits with no reason.

There are a couple of bot instances that basically are just spamming reposts, was it maybe on one of those? Lots of us blocked the main offenders and then I think our instances defederated from them anyway, but maybe yours didn't?
Update: Yep according to lemmy.ca/instances you're still linked to lemmit.online which is the main culprit instance as far as I can tell. Blocking https://lemmy.ca/u/bot@lemmit.online will take care of it for you personally. If the case you're posting about was another instance / user then it may be the same sort of deal.
