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?

I’m not supporting anyone. I use whatever platform I like. I happen to not like Reddit so I wish to use an alternative. Unfortunately it’s very hard to find an alternative. It would be so easy for Lemmy to become that alternative if there was a couple bots filling in the gaps until there is enough users posting of their own.
Why are you here? Just to make a point? Or aren’t you also here for entertainment?
Newsflash: using a platform increases engagement.
What you do is, indeed, up to you. But don’t pretend continuing to use Reddit or birdsite or whatever doesn’t benefit them and proliferate the exact thing you are seeking an alternative for.
You ask if I’m here for entertainment? Yep. Because I don’t value entertainment over supporting someone like Spez and Google AI.
