Given how often memes are reposted: There should probably another vote option like a "Hey, I've seen this before!" vote button beside the upvote and downvote options.

When the same guy makes the same post to 10 different instances I wish lemmy would group them together or somehow amalgamate the 10 disparate conversations together. Lemmy is several orders of magnitude more reposty than reddit which is saying a lot.

I wonder if Lemmy had emoji reactions, if there'd end up being an emoji code that sorta meant this

But the data needs to be correlated! For example, how many people know it's a repost but upvote it anyway because it's a classic?

It's usually what I use the downvote button for. Especially if I've seen it recently.

We should have a long-press function that opens a reaction wheel with ten different options and you should be able to select multiple.

Reposts are like cover songs. They keep the original alive.

What's old to you is new to someone else though. I try to not get too bothered by this.

...general riposte!..
