I think that is the great part, somehow it has stayed relatively small. Some of the federation is overkill since I've seen folks posting the same article 100 different places even though we see if on the other sites across the fediverse and platforms.

@cjerrington @stux
I wonder how crossposting is working/going to work. Is it going to be like a copy with a different comment section for each community or like a single thread present in multiple communities with unified comment section.

If the comment sections are separated, can be de-duplicate posts and unify comment sections using something like a multireddit.

Cross posting a comment from kbin. I think I initially was talking about the content itself of people posting the same link to "some news story" multiple times. Sometimes its the same user across instances rather than letting the federation happen.

Indeed, much content/communites are double or even triple and not really needed when we can federate right :D

Yea. Are we not federating with Lemmy.World? It's like Wack-a-mole over there.

[–] stux@geddit.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We are! Most communities on here are on Lemmy.World :D

(try putting the full remote URL into search, and sometimes click "next" to make an extra search call")

Oh cool. I'm hoping this place is a bit less chaos than Lemmy.World. My GOD it's insane to moderate that server.

[–] stux@geddit.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)
