No shade: was this post intentionally cross/reposted here? Original thread.

yep! any mastodon post whose first line looks like a subject line and which tags the community is treated by Lemmy as a new thread in that community. now, you might think that’s an awful mechanism in that it’s very hard to get right on purpose but very easy to accidentally activate if you’re linking and properly citing an article in the format that’s most natural on mastodon. and you’d be correct!
