I could, but I'm afraid that would lead to even more people who don't realize they're looking at copied content. I get enough messages from people who misunderstand the bot as it is :/
Personally I'd be fine with allowing it in bios only. If people want to see more, they'll check out the bio, and see the link there. In other cases someone will just be like "... Nice." without feeling advertised to.
In the end, it's all about the rules the community itself puts up. Personally, I get more enjoyment out of fewer "real" (imperfect/amateur) out-of-love quality, than more perfect/fitgirl for-profit quantity. But I'm aware this is generally a minority opinion.
Congrats on reaching this set of sane rules. The efforts of creating an admin community behind the scenes are really starting to show off.
Request for clarification for uhmm, a friend of mine: When someone creates that own instance, with blackjack and hookers, and one of your users subscribes to a community there, it will synchronise part of that content to lemmynsfw. What will you do then?
I'd like to remind you that some beautiful maniacs can be quite reasonable ;)
Could you give an example post of what you mean? Every Post starts with "The original was posted on /r/blabla", in which the latter links to the original, old.reddit.com link, will that work for you?
Can't believe I hadn't tried that myself! (well, or that nobody else suggested it in that github issue).
I won't be applying that patch, because I don't really want to mess with the deployment system, but I did leave a list of current NSFW communities in the comments.
Apologies for the late reply, here's a list of the current NSFW subs on the server. I'm not quite sure on how to keep this list up to date automatically, but I'll figure something out.
That could work, but it would be terrible for discoverability. In the mean time, I put up a feature request at Lemmy. I'm not a fan of pushing my problems upstream, but in this case it would actually be the easiest solution - as far as I can see (and I have 0 experience with Rust) they only need to adjust the validation regex, because the database already allows for it. That is - as long as the ActivityPub protocol allows for it.
If they deny it, I could try something with name mapping, but you'd either end up with something that is unreadable, or something with a high collision chance. Neither option is very appealing. For now I'm just going to wait and see.
I have considered some technical solutions, and I agree that this sub would be an excellent candidate for archiving. For now I have made a feature request at Lemmy because, let's face it, that would solve several problems.
If they aren't up for it, I could try and fix it some other way, but ideally it would be fixed if they would just allow for 1 more character than they do now.
You know what, there actually is a setting in Lemmit that allows for scraping of new. I'll make an exception for dota2 for you, gimme a moment to fix that.
Having said that - since there's only 7 subscribers to that community right now, it will only get updated once per hour (once per half hour once it hits 10), but you will get all the posts.
You're right that it doesn't pick up everything, the bot is not using the new sorting, but the default, hot. I did this intentionally, in order to have a bit of quality filter. Let's face it, with the amount of people visiting here right now, there's not going to be much up/down voting to do quality control.
Those posts you mentioned did make it on here eventually (once they got enough votes on reddit), but I'm afraid that if your goal is to have a 1-on-1 copy of reddit, that won't help you much :/

!Superstonk@lemmit.online is already a thing brah.

Thanks, added as a sticky in the lemmit community.
Ideally I want to have this done automatically.
I'm not sure what you mean, do you have a link and/or screenshot? If it only happens in a specific client, it's probably an issue with that client.
Cheers,
bothall three of you. We're off to a beautiful federated future.Congrats on reaching this set of sane rules. The efforts of creating an admin community behind the scenes are really starting to show off.

Yeah, I've upped the limit on this server, so it should come through now if you retry.
Could you give an example post of what you mean? Every Post starts with "The original was posted on
/r/blabla", in which the latter links to the original, old.reddit.com link, will that work for you?OMG, That did it!

Unfortunately, Lemmy cannot handle community names over 20 characters, so this won't be possible.
Done ;)
