Is it okay to essentially copy a subreddit to lemmy? (sh.itjust.works)

I want to add a community that is essentially the Lemmy version of an existing subreddit (r/mcmansionhell). Is this allowed?

I tried posting from Mastodon and it worked although the title didn’t come through quite right.

I saw I think <:3

If you can change the title through lemmy, to have the "CityName, StateName - Tag" format, that would be really helpful!

So is there a way to view this on kbin or do I always have to view it on sh.itjust.works?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

you should be able to view it wherever you use lemmy. they're all federated

https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]

This should work after searching the URL straight from kbin... but searching it right now gives me a 500 Server error. Seems like it's having technical issues.

I think It's because someone from Kbin needs to subscribe to it first. I just did that and the link works now. Though federation doesn't work retroactively, so the existing posts aren't showing up.

I've been getting 500s all day so it's most likely the server not being able to keep up with the Reddit migration

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

400s errors are server side. 500s errors are your side.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Other way around. 400s are client errors, 500s are server errors.
