But for real. You can use something like a webscraper that crawls reddit via the normal web interface and create a bot account on lemmy. Then just download the reddit posts and upload them to lemmy. I would not recommend this as lemmy.ml is currently almost at capacity and uploading tons of reddit posts does not help.

Oh I personally don't intend to, just wanted to understand how it works. Reddit has so many bots it shouldn't be too advanced programming
