imo the most important is the text content - for instance, long text posts with over N words and over K upvotes? So the bot could monitor all posts coming in /new and check on them several days later - if the number of upvotes exceeds the K threshold, it'd repost them. Just hoping there are people here who might get interested in the idea.

I think text posts are the best too. Why not grab stuff from /r/sub/hot or even top daily?

idk about how /hot posts are formed. Maybe that'd be enough to get the same results. I'm just a bit of a perfectionist and prefer to check the votes myself vs relying on what reddit would put in /hot ; )
