This has been tried, but there's so much more reddit content that nobody can comment on it from here and start a good conversation. Plus many people came here to escape that.
There's an instance lemmit.online that mirrors reddit content and you can subscribe to the communities.
Like others said, there is so much content it's hard to get conversations going, it works better to cross post interesting content to a lemmy community.
Sadly a lot of the small/niche sub Reddits I miss on Lemmy aren't synced (e.g. MysteryDungeon, ModdedMinecraft and Palworld), some exist here, but the activity on them is quite small.
Sadly it doesn't appear to play nicely with the Eternity app I use to browse Lemmy though :/
It works now, guess it only syncs posts since you're subscribed though! :)
Yes, it's a lemmy thing that when the first personnel on your instance subscribes, it takes like a page of posts and then only the new ones going forward.
Lemmit.online used to have a way to add new subreddits, but it seems they have stopped accepting new ones. Must have got a bit too big to handle.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !feedthebeast@lemmit.online
That's basically what !reddit@lemmy.world is. There are others in the same vein though I don't know how active they are. Some of them are even automated but I feel like Lemmy hates bots more than most other social media platforms and have blocked them so communities that use bots to fill out content are largely ignored.
