[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 2 years ago (1 child) Yeah, why wouldn't I be? permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] samuelblock@lemmy.world [S] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children) It’s nice for viewing, but it can convolute posting. Which one do I post do? Do I cross post? Not a huge issue but still a bit annoying permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] fuckwit_mcbumcrumble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 years ago IMO that is one of the biggest issues with lemmy. If you make one post then potentially 1/3 of people see it. If you cross post it to all communities then lemmy shitty algorithm likes to put all 3 posts right next to each other and that gets annoying fast. Then if someone makes a comment on community As post, but you only picked Bs post then now you miss out. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago Agreed. I don’t cross post. The community with the most membership or activity gets my posts, unless there’s a good reason to to support another community. Cross posting to identical communities doesn’t improve the usability of Lemmy. permalink fedilink source parent
