What is the etiquette on shamelessly stealing from Reddit to post here? (self.main)

By "here" I mean all of the Fediverse, but more specifically sh.itjust.works; I don't want to cause any bad vibes in my new home instance.

I don't NORMALLY post, and I'm limiting my access to Reddit in favor of Lemmy, but if stealing from the rich is acceptable, I'm happy to occasionally Robin Hood content over; I just prefer my theft to be within prevailing ethical guidelines.

Thanks!

There are bots that scrape content off of reddit and repost it here, so as far as actual consequences go I doubt there are any. Personally, I try to keep all of my content original, but then again I like the original places I'm trying to rebuild over here so YMMV.
