  • A possible solution to moderation is allowing communities to delete a parent comment (+ the child comments) from that community w/o actually fully deleting the comment

    Therefore if you view that specific post with the context of a specific community, you only see the comments that are not deleted, which have (most likely) been moderated already

    If you view the source post directly, you would see all the comments for that post


  • With the feature request I posted on GitHub, it would work similarly to reposting/reblogging on Mastodon.

    Except inside Lemmy anyone who can post in the community would (most likely) create a post linking to an existing post and it would appear that the post mentioned just got posted into that community

    Moderators would ideally see who created that crosspost and have the ability to block that person from crossposting (or posting entirely) to that community w/o affecting the third-party post

    If someone wouldn’t want their posts crossposted they can just block the community’s actor (account)


  • It would also allow for Lemmy users to crosspost posts from other Fediverse services, such as Mastodon

    Eg you see a post on Mastodon that would fit great in a startrek community, you would be able to cross post that Mastodon post into that community

    This would enable individual posts to gain traction and comments without having comments/replies being spread across multiple places

    Edit: it would work very similarly to reposting/reblogging on mastodon
