I get where you're coming from, but why not just let Lemmy be its own thing and hope it grows and attracts the right user base? I think I'd rather keep the two separate.
Honestly, my only use case for reddit currently is as an archive for my questions that likely have answers on reddit. A reddit archive Lemmy instance would allow me to completely stop usage of reddit, easily. I'd imagine there are a lot in the same boat.
Not sure that it's even a feasible option, but it would be welcomed. If anyone has some suggestions to solve this use case I'd be interested to hear it.
I wouldn't mind some shared content from quality communities, like the posts from the machine learning research community.
