It reminds me how Imgur is often discussing images that were uploaded for Reddit and OP will never know about all the comments.

    Harmful. It’s noise pollution. It dilutes human contribution and makes it harder to engage with other people.

      Yeah, at least if it’s everything. I don’t necessarily mind if content from Reddit is being recycled to here, as long as it’s sparingly selected. By a human or maybe by a bot if the content passes through certain thresholds (X amount of upvotes or something, idk).
