Cross-posting has struck me as a little strange and I think maybe this is a part of it.

Doesn’t it benefit larger communities more than smaller ones by keeping the activity in a larger one, since they can comment there rather than go to the smaller community? 🤔

    But lemmy to me, who browses /all/new, has a terrible problem with “spam” - valid posts in some cases but one person posting the same thing to 20 communities and overwhelming the feed

    Also sometimes “spam” with a bunch of posts to a single community by someone really trying to liven it up via posts alone. Something I sorta understand but how often has that worked for any online community? 🤨
