How about extending the software so that communities replicate between sets of servers over time? That way, things are more robust even if one server goes down.

Well, I do get a lot of alerts from Google as new topics come in, and I could post those links. That's mostly the way things are handled in the Futurology and Science subs. Posting those to Lemmy communities should work, I think. I guess I worry about swamping a community with traffic, but if so, I guess whoever manages that community can let me know to dial it back.
Well, I can't see a reason either, but from a community standpoint is that okay?
I wasn't thinking about reuploading comments, just submissions. There are a lot of submissions that would be interesting to discuss here as separate conversations away from reddit. For example, Futurology, Science, Finance, and even Aww and Eyebleach have some nice things to discuss.
Is it permissible to transfer the submissions from reddit to lemmy directly, to at least provide a seed to start conversations going?
That is awesome! how soon until Beehaw is federated with them?
