    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

      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.

      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.
