Copying content? No that will piss off a lot of people and makes Lemmy look desperate. Give it time to grow organically.

I was having the same thought, mostly to kick-start some of the smaller niche communities that I used to use on Reddit.

In some communities I was already repeating the same advice over and over again like a parrot.
There was so much traffic and desinformation that the same question would pop up 30 times in an hour.
Since some of the comminities I liked I haven’t been able to find here, I just… created it. And am slowly filling it in with everything I amassed during my reddit time.
People may find it useful or not, and may begin engaging with it or not (hope not, cause I wasn’t born to “mod”) but at least I will have all advice and resources in one spot, neat and tidy. And if anyone needs it, it will be there.
