I think that's a fair concern, but it may be a good route for smaller communities to migrate and try and grow their communities.
World News is a big reddit community so I can imagine content flooding happening.
EDIT: Also this is happening only on Lemmit.online which is designed to be a Reddit mirror. So this makes some sense for people willing to try it out or wanting it separate from the active communities.
Indeed. If it's an instance intended to mirror Reddit, it's fine as a basic backup of Reddit. We definitely don't want to encourage this behaviour in general purpose spaces, though. That'll just fill communities with comments that no one comments on, making everywhere look dead.
@BananaTrifleViolin @crunchpaste @Wander you could have a community populated by only the top posts and comments from reddit after some delay
