Crossposts might be annoying, because
- essentially they are the “repost” feature of lemmy. And repeats might be low quality spam, because you have to look at the source, how often it was reposted already, etc.
- crossposts might seem like a cry for unwarranted attention, but they might be necessary in a fractured federated system like Lemmy …
Or do you not care when realizing “this is a crosspost”?
They usually are, some examples on !fedigrow@lemm.ee
Some admins just want to keep their communities open no matter what. See an example here: https://sopuli.xyz/post/24057566
Feel free to chime in with your own input, or just a link to this point, at this point I’m just kind of done with that conversation.
