More than 5 posts would raise the likelihood of people blocking that instance because of spam. Less is more.
As long as they're not back to back I don't mind. But what I HATE is people that spam out like 30 posts in one go. I don't want an entire page to be posts from one person/community.
I especially hate it when it's the exact same link, but different communities (shouldn't be an issue for OP, but I hate that shit). Lemmy really needs to fix that. I don't mind people cross posting 30 times, but I only want to see the same link once per page.
I make an exception to that rule for the /c/superbowl. I love seeing a bunch of owls suddenly appear in my feed :)
Hah, I figure I do bother some people with my block of posts, but 1) I put all my posts up and breakfast so people have all day to ask me questions and I have all my down time at work to answer them so you get quick replies before you forget you even asked something, and 2) if seeing 3-5 owl photos is a row is that big a deal, congrats on having no real problems! 😜
I really do feel that way I do it is an advantage for anyone who develops a real interest in the content. It works for me in a way that it isn't a burden to do it every day, and you get my mostly undivided attention to reply to you.
Omg, I agree. I hate seeing the same article posted to 10 different instances all lined up in a row.
