Community seems dead. Can we mirror reddit posts here? (communick.news)

Arguments to support the idea:

According to browse.feddit.de, this is the largest community for showcasing electronics projects, the last post is almost one month old.
People that signup to alien.top via the fediverserver portal will have this community as the recommended alternative to /r/electronics, but they will pretty much never see it if the community does not have any fresh content and will be more likely to lose interest.
Despite the usual criticism of mirroring bots, the way that the fediverser tool works is showing to actually help interaction. In the past two weeks, I'm seeing an above average increase of subscriber and (more importantly) user count on communities like !main@selfhosted.forum, !homelab@selfhosted.forum and !emacs@communick.news

If you get a great Reddit bridge working bi-directionally. More power to you. I took a look at home lab right now, there's a ton of post but no comments. So I'm not sure it's there yet.

This is what I'm seeing...

Yeah. That looks great. Just not what I'm seeing on my instance, maybe I need to update?

Pretty sure I read before that those counts do not include federated instances and only represent user/subscriber count on the instance you're viewing from.

I'm not looking at the statistics. I'm looking at the different posts in the community. And they're all empty for me. I open them up and they're still empty.
