Only open-ended questions? Only questions from mildly embarrassing ignorance?

What if instead I ask everyone anything here? I have no idea what I'm doing, do you? How are ya? Confused? I might be too.

You should ask these communities stuff.

Would it be better or worse if cross-posts joined their comments from their different communities? (lemm.ee)

Cross-posting has struck me as a little strange and I think maybe this is a part of it.

Doesn't it benefit larger communities more than smaller ones by keeping the activity in a larger one, since they can comment there rather than go to the smaller community? 🤔

Worse, different communities have different focuses and moderation styles.

Yeah, that's one of the big downsides that occurred to me as I wrote this. Similar issue with trying to merge any similar but distinct communities

I would be okay with it being opt-in on third-party clients as long as it was clearly apparent which comments were from a discussion on another community and perhaps going as far as not allowing interaction, or at least voting, without navigating to the comment on its native community.
