If anything, shouldn’t it be encouraged, and even automated? I’m including even the ‘old’ stuff from reddit here. Reddit shouldn’t be the absolute owner of the content submitted by users. When I migrated here, it wasn’t because of me being against reddit users, but being against reddit the company. Copying the content here actually hurts the company in sense that they don’t get to then gatekeep the crowdsourced content.
I’m copying my best jokes, anecdotes, and philosophical maundrings over manually, but
1 ) only my own content, and
B ) in ways that’s not “go look at this thing on reddit”, and of course
]I[ ) only in relevant communities or my own personal communy
So, in summary: Sourcing and curation are key to this, and automating the process is bad for both.
