Genuine question.
There are tons of niche subs on Reddit that aren’t on Lemmy or don’t have enough people posting. Lemmy could benefit from bots that automatically post Reddit content. Why is this not a thing?

This is simply untrue. There are known bots on Reddit that have a lot of interaction in the comments. The same goes for some subs here that I know have bots posting.
This is the problem that will be solved by the bots. Everyone on Reddits seems to hate Reddit. But nobody is moving over because there is nobody moving over. If at least the posts are crossposted then I bet a lot of people will flock over to Lemmy, which in turn will fill the comment threads.
/r/RedditAlternatives is getting some traction, Lemmy is the most mentioned alternative over there
I’m here to avoid most of the people that were on Reddit.
I like having small communities and names I recognize. More content would be nice, but at what cost?
