Comment on At-home STD tests offer new options for screening and treatment
AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 3 days agoYou didn’t intend to warn me, you basically said I was supporting it by posting a link in the comments (which I wouldn’t have had to do if you didn’t just immediately crosspost form ML).
I don’t care what transphobes have to say, I’ve heard it all before, nice of you to link transphobic content to me. At least I don’t crosspost content from the land of transphobes, though! You enjoying having your feed be filled with ML content even though you claim to boycott them?

Taking content from them, doesn’t support their instance in any way. Upvoting, commenting and posting on comms on their instance does. Which I don’t do and by cross-posting content away onto non.ml comms it reduces their activity bit by bit but revitalizing other similar comms

According to your logic, crosspost links always display, so by crossposting from ML, you’re driving traffic there and reducing friction. Right? It’s right in your post, you even said so!
In fact, on the standard Lemmy UI, it’s not in a submenu at all…it’s just straight up linked under the post title. No extra click required. So what’s the difference?

Well sure, it’s not foolproof, but the vast majority of users are probably not using the default Lemmy UI (because it kinda sucks lol) and instead are using an app or other front end.

People should know that you’re crossposting from transphobic instances, in my opinion, so I’ll continue letting people know, especially for those using screen readers. Also, I use the default Lemmy UI almost daily.
