Content jacking and top posting other people's content is really bad for Lemmy. It's also just being a dick to other people making content on the platform.

  • feed is spammy
  • divides conversation
  • chills engagement
  • makes Lemmy less friendly to posters

This pattern is very common on lemmy, and needs to stop.

This is often used to attack or force migrate conversations from a instance someone doesn't like to another instance they do like. It's offensive by its very nature.

If you want to make a better community, great, do it but not at the expense of other Lemmy posters.

They are reposting, within minutes, the original content other users provide, with the intention to reduce the interaction they might be getting, even if asked to please stop it. How is that ok, honestly i don't get how you guys can think that way?

I have never spent time in a social media setting where people like this were tolerated.
