    It’s difficult to build new communities. You need fresh content to attract a crowd and unfortunately the best way to do this is with Reddit reposts.

      It’s the easiest way to seed content but isn’t the best for building a community. Communities need to be more than RSS feeds. And that missing element is a human filter IMHO. Curated content.

      I don’t think most people mind curated reposts at all. No one wants to see every reddit post copied over en masse. Well, I guess a some do, but they suck, as is covered in the post title.

      It doesn’t seem like it is effective as I rarely see any upvotes or comments on the reposts.
