I'm of two minds about it. On one hand it would give Lemmy users more content to interact with which is good, on the other you're directing to where we just came from and increasing engagement there which is bad. So I'm on the fence. If someone wants to do it it's worth the experiment IMO, but I'm largely not going to be clicking that Reddit link unless its compelling. If it's linked to an external site aside from reddit I'm all for it though, so long as it doesn't get out of hand.
I think that the situation being described isn't linking to Reddit, but linking to what Reddit is linking to.
If that will end up being the case I'm all for it. Just so long as it's not a 1:1 copy with discussion posts and all. At least until lemmy gets bigger
The only option for me should be taking posts content and bringing it here without the Reddit link, only mentioning it comes from there and giving credits to the OP, I won't open Reddit links.
