How do you feel about bots automatically reposting content from Reddit onto Lemmy?

    People post form Reddit, YouTube, Twitter, Software release... Reddit is no different taking from other sites. If it's automated or not matters, (IMHO). More content at this point is good. Taking from Reddit, (or any other sources), shouldn't matter. Ideally, the honorable thing to do is give the proper reference to your source, (or even better, from Reddit's source).

    Ed: Spelling and formatting

    Outside my depth but I'll give it a stab. Identify what data is important, (is the full 42Tb needed?). Can the data be split into easier to handle chunks?

    If it is, then I personally do an initial sneakernet to get the fist set of data over. Then mirror different on a regular basis.

    I hope RIF, Apollo, Infinity... and all the other wonderful alts have been reached out to. They are a big reason for the migration.

    Some interviews were interesting, (Neil Degras Tyson, Elon Musk, several other comedians and actors that I found interesting). He was always willing to call BS on guests will some quick Googling. He did get things wrong but was willing to own up to it. Unfortunately once he hit Spotify level and doubled down on his expertise on the human physical body, he no longer listened to experts, (carnivor diet, Covid...)

    You mean about the time he spoke about strengthening immune systems and not being worries about Covid then getting it and throwing 15k worth of treatment on himself right away? Yeah. I dropped his show too.

    I saw that boost and upvotes will be revamped in the next few days or weeks. It was noted the current model has problems.

    Good post... should be in the Magazine FAQ/Wiki...

    Few more scams to call out...

    • Send money to help family member injured out of town.
    • Amazon fake order (anyone calling for that matter saying you've been billed or ordered something).
    • Car should also be for anything requesting a deposit before seeing in person with appropriate access or buying, (rental property, pets...). Usually high pressure and a really good deal situation.
    • if it's too good to be try or you feel soemthing is off... it usually is.

    I have it unchecked. But that shouldn't kill my session mid browsing. I will try checking it if I get desperate enough.

    I'm noticing this happen more frequently, (in some cases after a few clicks). Not doing anything crazy. Happens when viewing All (newest) and upon upvoting an article. On a browser on my phone. Edit: Adding to the list.. * Commenting * Refreshing * Searching Magazines

    Not sure about the technicalities of it. Are the protocols similar enough for this? Edit: not sure why this was double posted. I deleted the other one.

    Why YSK: If you have digital data that is important, (family photos, crypto keys/wallets...). Back it up and prevent permanently losing it. 3 different places its saved to, (iPhone, ICloud, laptop, Facebook, Google, Camera SD, Flash drive...). 2 different media, I would consider iPhone and iCloud the same. Buying two External Drives of the same type and brand too. Why? Consider losing your Apple account or the drive model fails in a year. 1 off site copy. If all your copies are in your house, a flood, fire, tornado, hurricane, EMP... would lose every thing. 0 time to waste. (My own personal add). Do it now. Procrastination is dangerous and is the biggest regret for when things go sideways.

    Something i haven't seen posted here yet, but worth say over and over again. Murphy's law says that anything that can go wrong will go wrong… but with the 3-2-1 strategy in place, your data always survives.
