This is just a community meant for migrators of Reddit to come on over. I have no idea how to mod and get things going, but it would be cool if someone with some knowledge could set up an RSS-Feed or something to get some automated deals posted!

Honestly, I'm okay with that, in fact encourage it. I need to figure out how to do that myself.

The https://lemmy.world/u/NEWS bot looks pretty good. It posting quite often, so I assume it's harvesting something.

Welcome :) I'll try to keep it community based, but if we keep growing I'll try to get more moderators and maybe bots to get some deals automagically

Howdy! I'm starting to like this federation concept.
