Is there a way to hide posts that have identical titles on identical sibling communities? My feed gets cluttered really fast when I’m subbed to a big community on two different instances because people often crosspost. I’m tempted to leave one, but I don’t want to miss anything.

      Do you have any suggestions for a better one? I’m all ears, but the solution definitely isn’t “hey guys stop crossposting”. Any other solution would require structural refactoring of Lemmy, and changes like that are not easy. I saw a post talking about combining sibling communities, but that would get very messy very fast. This solution is pretty elegant imo. Just a checkbox that says “I prefer posts from my main instance, hide any crossposts” would be perfect. No one has to subscribe to sibling communities either; if you’re fine sticking to one, then the issue doesn’t apply.
