Pick a lane, or give it some time.
Same with one user making 10 posts at a time to same community.
I block that lem.
I think I have zero users blocked, but if I were blocking people it wouldn’t be for this. Cross-posting is good for the lemmy ecosystem, it spreads engagement to more communities and instances.
I post all my posts for the day in a block, so you’ll see me post 3-6 things and be done. It’s just easier for me. I post mainly educational content, so getting the posts out of the way all at once lets me just pop in during my breaks in the day to answer questions.
I don’t think I’m annoying, and if anything, if you don’t like my content, it keeps it in a relatively small range of your feed instead of it popping up multiple times. I figure I will annoy someone no matter what method I do it, so that’s what I’m going to stick with. After 3 years of doing it, you’ve either blocked me or you’re fine with it. 😁
Nah we good. I like your content. Owls and other avians are gtg in my book. Big dinosaur fan.
I don’t do it to everyone but there’s a number of folks I’ve just been like, no sir I don’t like it.

No, because I follow multiple similar communities on different instances, and people crosspost to all of them at once, as they should, by design
Nah, it can be annoying, but cross posting is a good thing. It decentralizes content. Not all instances are federated with all the others. Multiple communities is healthy for the fediverse. So cross posting is also healthy. Yeah, it would be nice if there was a way to collapse cross posts, but I’d rather deal with it than have things get too narrow.
Now post flooding? That can get old fast. Chill. Spread that shit out. We ain’t gotta see it all at once.
I get the point and understand wanting to make sure your info gets out there.
Due to how it seems the majority of folks scroll around here by using New the multiple share are too annoying.
I personally start my day with Scaled view but once I’ve gone through that New is the only way fly. That’s when it bothers me.
Definitely should be a way to collapse it or customized. I can deal with one or two but once I see something more than times in over it, user gets blocked.
That’s pretty obnoxious. Why not just avoid cross posted content?
Generally it’s something I don’t want to deal with, especially if the post isn’t of interest to me. Thin the herd.
Clearly I’m not alone.
The funny thing is, there was a similar post a day ago in a different server with the same community. And no it’s not annoying because this gives to those posts bigger reach. Just scroll past them, no need for blocks, it’s not that serious.
This is the second time I’ve seen this post…
I block them even quicker if their account is a week old or less

You probably already have me blocked, but rapid cross posts get collapsed in the new feed or when they’re otherwise both on the same page. I’ll post the same thing to several relevant comms on different instances at once because I care less about those instances, but still want to put relevant content there. I don’t tend to xpost to multiple relevant comms on the same instance.
It would be nice if the cross posts got hidden, I wonder if any clients do that. It’s one of my favourite feature in Tusky to hide multiple boosts in your feed.
Isn’t that something piefed does?
Cross-posting actually does get hidden to some extent, but I don’t know how it works. The feature was added a year or more ago, I think.
Oh, interesting. I haven’t made that work then. So far I keep seeing cross posts. Somtimes literally one after another.
Yeah, however it works, it clearly could be improved upon.
Yeah, I do the same thing. The third time I see the thumbnail user gets blocked.
I haven’t ran into this problem too much here. I would do this daily back when I was using Reddit
