If we could merge them like @xarvos@lemmy.ml suggested, that would be a killer feature and solve essentially all the problems. The other thing that I always see requested related to crossposts is that the original poster should get half the karma/rep/points.
Perhaps, but not necessarily. They could just be merged superficially, that is, you only see it once in your feed, but each crosspost still has its own comment section in its respective community.

Wouldn’t merging them also merge the discussions?
I think that would be a good thing. A really unique feature that would bring people from two or more different communities together.
