It reminds me how Imgur is often discussing images that were uploaded for Reddit and OP will never know about all the comments.

    Yes, when I see my feed have 5 or 6 posts in a row from the same poster within a few minutes and with no discussion, not even an initial comment or indication as to why someone thought it worth posting, I block that person…

    When the same article is posted to, for example, any Lemmy community on any instance with the word ‘news’ in it, that duplication grinds my gears.

    Now that I’ve been here a bit, I realise that it’s the discussion that is way better than the post, (normally) and there’s no faking that (yes, yes, chatgpt etc etc, but no, pleeeease).
