Darkscribes Community

Duplicating the object would mean the discussion is split between objects. The ideal implementation would be the same object present in multiple categories/communities. Is there desire for this in the threadiverse?

If the link goes to a controversial news article and it's get posted into pro- and against- community/group the comments will spiral out of control and it won't be a pleasant place.

Maybe it could be implemented as a toggle per group/instance within one fedi software. It shouldn't be in Activity Pub protocol.

As far as I am aware Lemmy doesn't have cross-posts like you are imagining.

There are two parts to this:

1. There is an indicator if there is other post that links to the same website/image.
2. Crosshposts are just a copy of the text with quote markdown.
