      What is this? Do you hate any content that appeared on reddit? I thought we hate reddit as a platform because what it became, not automatically all the content that appears there.

      So if I post my OC meme here, you like it, and then I also post it to reddit, then suddenly you hate it? Visit a psychologist because that ruins you more than me.

      Our goal is to avoid reddit (not giving them any engagement, ad money, etc.). By having a bot that rips off best of reddit’s content, bringing it here - aren’t we fulfilling the goal? Suddenly I don’t have to go to reddit if I can get my daily dose of memes here. For all I care the meme itself could have originated from 4chan

      I don’t think I’ve upvoted any of their posts, but there’s been some reasonable discussions under some of them. Would you be happier if they’d found the image somewhere else? I mean, all original content would be nice, but realistically most of it is going to come from somewhere else. I think what’s bothering me is that I only see you doing this under this one user, when there are multiple other users who also habitually repost, and it seems to have become something of a monomania. My apologies if I’ve missed some more widespread comments.

      I won’t block you because, apart from this, I generally don’t mind your posts, and I remember that you used to post more positively and even humourously. I hope that we see more of that, the fediverse needs more positivity. Besides, your username makes me laugh every time I see it.
