Comment on Bots copy pasting Reddit - is there a method to block them all?
rglullis@communick.news 1 year agoI might as well just use an RSS feed if I want to read news topics instead of bare Reddit copy paste submissions.
So the bots that create a complete mirror of subs (posts and comments) are ok, I hope.

The part you quoted. What I meant is that I might as well just subscribe to the news source using an RSS feed and cut out the middle men (Reddit and Lemmy).

Reddit/Lemmy is more than a link aggregator. 90% of its value is in the self-posts, and there is no RSS feeds for them.

I think you misunderstood what I’ve said.
