lemmit.online is a controversial lemmy server since its sole purpose is to run a bot that mirrors reddit posts to lemmy. Previous discussion 3 years ago about
whether to block it: https://lemmy.ca/post/1380644
Currently it is blocked from lemmy.ca and I would like to unblock it to ease weaning off reddit gradually. If I can use lemmy.ca as my main site with links off to reddit on occassion I don't need to use reddit anymore to browse but just drop in for a specific post of interest.
The main complaint is it can fill up the all category with high volume
of low interaction posts. This can be dealt with on a per user basis by blocking either the lemmit.online instance or blocking the bot@lemmit.online user.
Looking at the top 10 lemmy instances on https://fedidb.com/software/lemmy here's who allows or blocks the lemmit.online instance:
lemmy.world ✅
lemmy.ml ✅
sh.itjust.works ✅
lemmy.dbzer0.com ✅
lemmy.ca ❌
programming.dev ✅
lemmy.zip ✅
lemmy.blahaj.zone ❓
ttrpg.network ✅
lemmy.one ✅
Please no. We didn't need reddit content mirrored here before, and as the quality there drops like rocks, we need it even less now.
I fonpt want to have to continually add more personal blocks on junk.
If we did this, you would be able to block the whole instance at once. See the blocks tab on: https://lemmy.ca/settings
