Content jacking and top posting other people’s content is really bad for Lemmy. It’s also just being a dick to other people making content on the platform.
- feed is spammy
- divides conversation
- chills engagement
- makes Lemmy less friendly to posters
This pattern is very common on lemmy, and needs to stop.
This is often used to attack or force migrate conversations from a instance someone doesn’t like to another instance they do like. It’s offensive by its very nature.
If you want to make a better community, great, do it but not at the expense of other Lemmy posters.
… isn’t the one of the main rationales for the top posting because ml is blocked on many instances?
No, the rationale is to allow people to block (more like mute, Lemmy-blocking doesn’t really block) lemmy.ml
If !fantasy were to switch to !fantasy@lemmy.zip
That’s an improvement over it being at .ml, where the second point isn’t possible
