Reposting a picture? No problem.
Reposting text from or just a link to a reddit post? That's weird, don't do that.

Unless that repost is from the original poster on Reddit than I think it's annoying. Why should I comment on a post when the OP isn't even here to participate?

I don't have a problem with a meme repost from time to time. But this is !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world, people post things that annoy them and typically users engage with the post, ask questions, be angry together etc. If it is reddit repost we are engaging with the void. It is similar to reposting personal things such as AITA, relationship advice or whatever the fuck it is now called on Reddit.

I dunno.

On one hand, fuck reddit.

On another, if a given poster is also mildly annoyed at the subject matter enough to repost, then isn't it still their post here?

Or, on the third hand, if scrollers are popping in to talk, doesn't it serve the same purpose as a legit original post?

I would, however, on the fourth hand like to see it explicitly stated that just linking to reddit ain't cool. Because it ain't. Copy paste the post so nobody has to go there to enjoy it here.

On the fifth hand, I suggest speaking to a geneticist because having five hands for a human is plain strange.

I don't mind people moving content from Reddit to the threadiverse. I do mind posting titles that claim authorship of a post when you are reposting someone else's content. I am mildly opposed to including links to the original reddit post when reposting from reddit, but I wouldn't ask a mod to enforce that preference cuz you've got stuff to do. Just my two cents; it's whatever the community wants and you're willing to do.

I'd keep allowing it but remove the requirement to credit the OC if it's from reddit.

Personally, if it's organic, and by that I mean not automated, and someone went to Reddit, saw the post, and then reposted it Here, I don't have any issue with that.

I don't use Reddit, so any mildly infuriating post that gets posted from there to here is a post that I wouldn't have seen otherwise.

As long as I'm not forced to go to Reddit to interact with it, which so far out of what I've seen in this community I haven't had to because it's usually the picture and the post description lemmy side as well so I have no big issue with it

Just because Reddit is a shit site, and I don't like it, doesn't mean that all content on the site isn't worth anything, and if it's something that's cool or entertaining, and someone wants to bring it here, I'm all for it.

What's wrong with draining reddit content and increasing lemmy user share?

Why would anny lemmyist be against that? It's almost like some of people complaining are reddit plants.

I am more leaning to IDGAF where the URL is going to. Being able to post non-OC is important IMO.

We all dislike reddit that is part of the reason why we are here, but being allowed to link basically whatever I want is a part of the freedom i like here.

When it comes to this community, I don't feel like reddit reposts are appropriate in most cases. If it's the same user posting on both reddit and lemmy, then it's fine

I vote no Reddit.

Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.

We shouldn't send them traffic, but I have interest in good content from there. Repost without linking to Reddit.

I think images/meme level stuff is fine. As long as it's resharing something that is resonating rather than just reposting. i.e. posting the image or video directly rather than linking to Reddit. And as others mentioned, a text story is likely to be inappropriate, unless we do the whole screenshot other social media site trend which is fine imo

I blocked the spammy git that kept doing that, I don't feel they added anything of value to the community.

So I came here to get away from reddit and I do hate posts from reddit. All the same what I really hate is pictures and links with no context. A lot of reddit posts I have seen are screenshots with no context and I find those real annoying. Recently someon had a post where they wrote a lot and retold the story in their own words and put links for reference. That does not bother me at all. Honeslty its basically how I would like to see things here. Real posts from people who say what they think if they are introducing something like a picture or link. So I guess for me its a bit more nuanced. All the same im more anti reddit than ok with good versions of it. Heck I block the crazy linkedin communities and such because I don't want to see X or linkedin or facebook for that matter. slashdot would be fine with me but that is generally all text.

Reposts are pretty lame, I only care when it's the bulk of someone's presence on the community though, or if it's just from one reddit user they're trying to boost.
