Check out !worldnews@lemmit.online. The admin of lemmit.online has set up a bot that fetches reddit posts via RSS, making it much easier to make the switch and of course not getting any ads.
Also, these posts can then be cross-posted to help us create more content on lemmy native communities. Although I do recommend removing most of the post body when cross-posting. Alternatively you can turn the cross-post into a native post as if you simply were sharing content that you’ve seen on reddit, but with the perk of not having to load reddit.
I mostly agree, but there is a risk of overwhelming the new and relatively small communities of fediverse with a lot of links without any comments/discussion. Is there a way to filter the content according to their reddit ratings. That would help fetching more interesting stuff.
Honestly reddit is about 100 times too big now. Most comments on major threads go unseen. It was plenty big enough 16 years ago for lots of good discussion, way better than today to be honest. Now it’s just about who can get the quickest quip in. Actual discussion is pretty lacking on reddit.

It would stand to reason that if there is discussion on the original reddit thread, that it would also generate discussion here too.
Community is much smaller on this side of the fence, though.
