I block prolific crossposters

I commonly browse all by new, and I block users who crosspost any given article to more than one other community. To me it's almost always a sign that they actually don't care about the topic or contents, but instead their own post count and user recognition.

  • i see name multiple times in a row in new, i block. i see bots, i block.

    time will come that i will ask on a self post "why am i alone in lemmy?"

    • I wonder if you've blocked me. Lat night, two different posts of mine got on all. Wasn't my doing. It wasn't a crosspost though, two different posts in two different communities.

      • no I have not. I only block mostly bots truth be told. I do understand that there are multiple communities in different instances with the same name and purpose. I do not block indiscriminately, I do look at the history and debate myself first before deciding on it.
