    2 isn’t spamming bud. What someone else was doing the other day posting the same shit 20 times is spamming.

      I saw at least three in different communities on my frontpage. Didn’t even care to look at his profile to see how many he’s spammed because I don’t give attention to pathetic spammers like that, I instantly block them.

        Well yeah… you blocked me so you won’t see this message, so I’ll guess I’ll answer it for other people instead? That’s how the fediverse works. It’s comprised of different communities. It’s not like I post things all over the place for no reason.

        Everything I draw, I share on !thebadwebsite@lemmy.world (in english) and !lemauvaissite@jlai.lu (in french). They’re my “home” communities. I wouldn’t say it’s the same content posted twice, since it’s in two different languages, but you do you.

        This one was a comic too, so I posted it on !comicstrips@lemmy.world

        This one is a smuggie too, so I posted it on !smugideologyman@lemmy.dbzer0.com

        That’s it, I posted the english version of this comic in three different communities, two of which are tiny niche communities that you shouldn’t care about. Way to make a mountain out of a molehill.

            So you’re saying you did not make four different posts with that comic to four different communities?

            Do you have the ability to read the comments you are replying to?

            I wrote that I did share it to four different communities.

            Let me redo it from the top: On lemmy, there are communities. You share your content on the appropriate communities. I posted it to 3 appropriate communities in english (my home community, comics, and smuggies), and to 1 appropriate community in french (my home community). To consider this spam, you have to fundamentally misunderstand how lemmy works. If it makes you unhappy, just block me once again idk what to tell you, you are literally the first person to complain to me about this.

                When you post 4 posts in a row to Lemmy, they’re going to be four posts in a row on Lemmy. On Reddit, you can share to a dozen communities without it being spam. On Lemmy you can’t.

                How tf is is it spam??? It’s literally going into four different communities on three different instances. You’ll only see all four if you’re browsing /all, in which case you are taking on the burden of seeing crossposts. If something is relevant in four different communities, it should be posted in four different communities.

                You had three posts on the same page, my front page of Lemmy.

                It is your responsibility to curate your own feed, not every other user’s

                    You left this reply ten times. Maybe cull some of those repeats. Anyway I bet I can respond to this entire reply using only phrases from my last comment

                    Because on Lemmy there are so few posts it all ends up being put in a row. Which makes it spam.

                    Or is that hard to understand? The definition of spam is multiple (unwanted, but that’s a non-factor as basically I did want one, as I’m browsing the front page of Lemmy). Is it hard for you to understand why repeating the same thing online, several times, is considered spam?

                    It’s literally going into four different communities on three different instances. You’ll only see all four if you’re browsing /all, in which case you are taking on the burden of seeing crossposts.

                    By your logic you should post a news article to every single fucking news community on Lemmy.

                    If something is relevant in four different communities, it should be posted in four different communities.

                    There’s a reason people dislike spam but I don’t think a newfriend like you is able to understand it.

                    My account is older than yours lmfao

                    Damn, guess I need some new phrases

                    Hey, curate your own comments and block me instead of replying. But you didn’t.

                    Why would I do that? I mean aside from you literally spamming me with 10 fucking replies to the same comment on the same thread in the same instance, I don’t reckon I’ve ever even noticed you before. If you say some dumb shit I’m going to respond. I only block people who actually disrupt my experience, and you aren’t disrupting my experience. I enjoy these kind of exchanges.*

                    Wait, was that spam intentional? Did you think that it was somehow analogous to OP posting the same comic in four different communities across three different instances? I really hope not because it isn’t and it would make you look even worse than you already do

                    God I wish I could live back when illiterate morons like you knew to keep their facehole shut. Or when I could cease dueled you for it. Bet you wouldn’t have the balls to still be saying shit. I would.

                    Calling me illiterate when you can’t even proofread your own comments. Big fuckin balls on you though, bragging about how you could totally beat me in a duel lmao

                    @Dasus@lemmy.world @starman2112@sh.itjust.works @comicstrips@lemmy.world

                    By your logic you should post a news article to every single fucking news community on Lemmy

                    Sir, this is a Lemmy’s.
                    The very thing you said, it already happens: it’s called cross-posting and it’s quite common here on Lemmy. I attached a screenshot of just one example among countless others.

                    It’s pretty normal, and it’s not spammy IMHO: rather, it allows for different parts of Lemmy to better engage in parallel exchanges about the subject in question.

                    Also, Fediverse doesn’t imply everyone is federated with everyone, some instances defederated from other instances, hence why things benefit of being cross-posted.

                    mean dozens and dozens and dozens of the same exact fucking post on the front page

                    Also happens quite frequently, either… Especially, mind you, because we’ve been observing the strange phenomenon where the same situations are happening slightly differently, yet still very similarly, around the world (I just recalled a meme here in Brazil “Pode copiar, só não faz igual”, “You can copy it, just don’t make it exactly the same”).

                    Both social media platforms and we, the users, can’t help but to post about the slightly different-but-equal variations of the same elephants multiplying like rabbits across this large ballroom that is this Pale Blue Dot.

                    So if something have been behaving so spammy recently, it’s this increasingly-enshittified, damned Demiurgal world.

                    Hey, curate your own comments and block me instead of replying. But you didn’t

                    I’m not the person you’re replying to, but I’d add the following take: there’s a thing called nuance. Someone can disagree with someone but still continue to dialogue and can, mind you, agree with the same person whose other points they disagree with.

                    In fact, and it’s quite a meta-moment, I myself don’t fully agree with BadJlai when it comes to certain takes of theirs, particularly their straw-man on political nuance (“greenists-orangists” cartoon), but I myself like their comics and I proceed to appreciate it whenever they post a new comics, even the “greenish-orangists” cartoon I silently disagreed with, because I find their comics cleverly and nicely made, despite of any potential disagreements; this, unironically, is the very thing they seemingly mocked (and the very thing you’re subtly criticizing on your peer, too), the ability to agreeing and disagreeing and holding seemingly-dissonant views on things.

                    Screenshot of a Lemmy.world post depicting the cross-posting in action. Title and names are blurred because the subject matter of this screenshot is the cross-posting mechanism.

                Alright champ.

                There’s one way to make sure I never show up again on “your front page of Lemmy”.

                Do it again and be done with it.
