I’ll give you the old reddit answer to your old reddit problem
Just downdoot and move on.

At this point the original is buried far enough that the joke probably isn’t very obvious anymore, but someone posted this unironically a couple days ago, so I turned around and reposted it to two additional communities just to be on-the-nose about this type of whining.
Content is content - 99% of people don’t care if it’s been posted before
There are old things that are new to some people. You can watch reruns on TV, rewatch movies you’ve seen before and listen to music that’s 60 years old.

The most Reddit thing is complaining about reposts.
Just block people out instances that repost a lot
Complaining about complaining about reposts has already been posted before.
Yeah, this comment looks like a repost.
Reposting popular material isn’t a reddit thing, it’s a human thing.
There will always be someone who just discovered that whatever from a couple years ago and likes it enough to post it. The larger the user base, the more common this becomes.
One of today’s “lucky 10,000” as it were.

Yep. I actually don’t mind it as long as it’s not constant. It’s nice to see things again.
Voat (something I used before I realized it was just a racism thing (I know, I know, it’s very obvious in retrospect)) would point you at an existing post if you posted the same link.
The execution was bad, and I have some issues with the concept, but it did make me think maybe there is a solution to that particular problem.In a different universe, most social medias use OCR and image recognition technology to handle this instantly and easily. This meant a huge reduction in bandwidth and storage issues on the great WWW which eventually lead to world peace.
This universe seems to be… Behind where it’s supposed to be?
Almost as if its a reddit alternative… then again you can select which communities you wanna see and the smaller ones are pretty good usually.
And then there are posts complaining about the posts
Ironic because this is the second time I’ve seen this image posted
It’d be three if you visit my other repost!
When you really kinda like the Lemmy fediverse thing, but people post their memes to multiple communities without using crospost so you keep seeing the same thing over and over.
I’ve blocked a few people like that, anything more than two is just taking the piss.
I upvote the first and downvote all subsequent ones.
I stole this from another user fair and square!
I’m fine with stealing as long as you use crosspost rather than posting it again as a new post.
As someone who left reddit over 2 years ago never go go back, a lot of the posts that people classified as “reddit reports” I have never seen before 😂
In the biological sciences world, this is known as “you are what you eat”. My impression is that this place has always kinda been the most popular alternative destination for redditors (exes or otherwise).
I think it’s more common when communities are newly created, as people want to populate the community with some content to kickstart activity and interest.
So hopefully it’ll just even out eventually, when communities become more self-sustaining and active.
One of the fundamental issues is that it’s just people.
People are going to talk about things like people do, and just because it ends up looking like Reddit or whatever doesn’t mean that this is a bad thing.
It just means that format is one of the ways that people tend to communicate.
Drown them out with oc!
