Would it be possible, or even desirable, to post a single thread to multiple communities? I was just looking back on the idea by /u/AgreeableLandscape for privacy violation tracking and ended up in the /c/privacy version, which was dead, instead of the /c/libre_community version with a decent number of comments. I am not saying I think it should be a certain way, just throwing spaghetti at the wall.

    This. Different communities are going to have different mods, userbases, votes on a post, etc. “Merging” doesn’t really make sense when you factor those in.

    Also I pretty much built lemmy that posts have a parent community / belong to a community.
