Does anyone know if creating a content-"sharing" bot for Lemmy(, from reddit subs and elsewhere,) would be illegal ? (lemmygrad.ml)

There's quite a few communities that i'm missing on Lemmy.
It could potentially lead to a trial, and/or "save" Lemmy, so it seemed worth asking, just in case.

I haven't been able to subscribe to communities I'm not already subscribed to using Sync, I usually go on the web interface.

If you want to search for already copied communities, you should search lemmit's local communities. To request new ones, you have to post on !requests@lemmit.online, but keep in mind that the bot is broken until its author updates it.

Yep that's what i'm currently doing with mapporn, it's easier with a computer, i'm glad to have found out this bot exists(, or existed until 3 days ago, don't yet know how it'll turn out).
