If anything, shouldn't it be encouraged, and even automated? I'm including even the 'old' stuff from reddit here. Reddit shouldn't be the absolute owner of the content submitted by users. When I migrated here, it wasn't because of me being against reddit users, but being against reddit the company. Copying the content here actually hurts the company in sense that they don't get to then gatekeep the crowdsourced content.

I manually take content from Reddit.

I select myself what content to copy, so it's not like bots than tend to spam things.

Feedback seems pretty good so far.

That’s because you’re doing it right. You’re not just some reddit spambot.

The biggest thing is talking to people about their thoughts on a subject. Bots can't do that (...yet?)
