This was discussed on both communities you posted this two five days ago:
yiffit.net/post/884578
yiffit.net/post/884575
(Sorry for the yiffit links - Lemmy still does not have server-neutral ways to link to posts)

I’m pondering blocking users that post the same links over and over again on different communities. Why do it ?

So people in different communities see it I would imagine.

Crossposting would be miles better then.

If they’re cross-posted they’ll show up only once (though not all apps support this feature yet). I cross-post when I know something is especially relevant to multiple communities. If I don’t then someone else will, either not cross-posting or using a different source, meaning it will definitely show up multiple times to people.

Yes, crossposting should be the way forward to avoid needless clutter. Let us hope most apps implement that feature quickly.
