I’d love it if client-side processing could collapse these posts into one.

    For sure - I do get the point you’re making and you’re not wrong. I’m just saying this is a bigger problem in a federated world as there are multiple worldnews/ news communities.

      That’s correct.

      With duplicate communities on separate instances, or more accurately - communities of similar purpose and content, if you’re browsing by all or new you’ll see all communities your instance is federated with.

      That will for sure lead to duplicate links, especially for large events, as they’ll get posted to their local instances and then shared out.

      Your best way around that is to view by subscribed, or understand that if you’re subbed to similar communities on different instances, seeing the same links is more likely.

      I can for sure see how it can be viewed as a downside. There’s a TON of app work going on right now, so someone will make a fix for it. 😁
