    Right, but by blocking them we lose the content entirely which is also not ideal.

    Lemmy/kBin really need a system to merge duplicate links/posts across instances.

      yes but Lemmy doesn’t handle it so put on your big boy pants, avert your gaze for a micro second, and don’t bother people who are actually providing content for us? Grue did nothing wrong and didn’t deserve to be accused of spamming.

        Thanks, I appreciate the support.

        FWIW, I would also love to have a merged view for crossposted threads – or for entire similar communities, for that matter. I suspect somebody’s working on it, but it seems like one of those things where the details start getting really tricky once you get into it.
