The fediverse isn't going to work if top pages consist of the same link 10x reposted. (kbin.social)

Seeing stuff about reddit being posted to 10 different technology boards, plus reddit-themed ones, then reposted further just makes this whole idea a mess. Reposts have to be consolidated into a single comment thread.

There has been no lack of outspokenness from people who want monolithic mega-groups or post deduplication. The topic gets posts with full discussions daily at this point, and people have been spilling over the fence from the other side for days on end to immediately complain that they're seeing groups with the same name, and expressing worry that they'll miss something interesting because they're used to reading 10 posts from popular subreddit and assuming that's all of value that was said on the topic that day.

You just don't see them as outspoken because you agree with them.
