Is it possible to follow communities in an instance like https://libreddit.kavin.rocks/r/ProfessorMemeology with a lemmy client?

No; libreddit is just a read-only frontend for Reddit.

The closest you can get is https://lemmit.online/
It's a lemmy instance which mirrors some subreddits

Bots shat themselves here (or people writing like bots, no difference ¯(ツ)_/¯).

Hi! This is just a friendly reminder letting you know that you should type the shrug emote with two backslashes to format it correctly:

Accidentally deleted my original comment, so I rewrote it; not sure why other people copied it verbatim.

There is some delay in federation, so it's possible that some users saw both of your comments. I remember once got upvotes on a comment I deleted instantly.

You'd probably have to jump through several hoops to make that happen. Libreddit doesn't offer any ActivityPub API to follow directly, or even RSS feeds that might be used by a bot to post updates to Lemmy.

But subreddits still provide an rss feed, just add
/.rssat the end, like this should work with any rss reader: https://www.reddit.com/r/fediverse/.rss So theoretically it should be possible, until they shut this "loophole" down-
Yeah, I don't know anything about the state of open Reddit endpoints. Seems they're intent on closing down non-Google/Gemini access to some of them? 🤷
But if the
/.rss"hack" helps setting up a Lemmy bot or at least track the communities with a feed reader, that's a small victory I guess?
