Can we just parse the whole Reddit and upload it to a separate Lemmy instance (slrpnk.net)

plus duplicate comments and set up a bot that would monitor Reddit for new posts and upload it there

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.
