I crosspost what I can from .ml comms to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm as part of ongoing efforts to boycott and reduce .ml’s influence on the wider Lemmy-verse because of the Tankie ideology the admin team of that instance enforce through censorship of views critical of Authoritarian regimes and allowing known propaganda outlets (such as RT) to fester (see !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works for what evidence and documentation has been gathered thus far)
That being said, everything else I crosspost is still visible as a crosspost via the crosspost icon that shows on posts.
Text posts like this are tricky since there’s no URL for the crosspost system to track and I don’t want to leave the link in place because that would make things too easy and possibly work in counter to my efforts. So to that end, I feel tagging the user is sufficient credit. People still know it’s some form of a crosspost, I’m not the OOP, and they know the name of the OOP should they really want to go to the original post
Why not use the cross-post function? Original post is at asklemmy@lemmy.ml btw

thats why it had a feeling of a conservative thing going on.
