Submitted this a while back to the Lemmy GitHub issues, thought I would post it back here to possibly grab traction/start a discussion on it

      It would also allow for Lemmy users to crosspost posts from other Fediverse services, such as Mastodon

      Eg you see a post on Mastodon that would fit great in a startrek community, you would be able to cross post that Mastodon post into that community

      This would enable individual posts to gain traction and comments without having comments/replies being spread across multiple places

      Edit: it would work very similarly to reposting/reblogging on mastodon

        That would be helpful. I have a Mastodon account that I’m pretty much just using to post my OC trek memes (plus some of my favorites from Risa), and being able to crosspost both ways would be nice.
