minus-squareunexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 month agoYeah the crosspost feature is important if you want it to show up in multiple communities. That allows clients to filter out the duplicates if the user wants it that way.
minus-squareMentalEdge@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-21 month agoYou don’t technically need to use the actual cross-post button. What matters is that the url being linked is the same. That’s how articles and youtube videos, even when posted separately by different people, get linked up as cross-posts. Some clients, (like Thunder) allow you to jump between all the different cross-posts so you can see all their comments.
