Cross-post using Jerboa (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by ottk3@discuss.tchncs.de to c/jerboa@lemmy.ml

Is it possible to cross-post using ~~Jebora~~ Jerboa?

Since this helps greatly spreading posts in the Fediverse especially if they are initially posted in smaller instances or to find communities on similar topics.

Is there already an option and I have just missed it?

Edit: It's Jerboa, Jerboa dammit!

I'm surprised that you managed to misspell Jerboa twice in a row

I don't know why this keeps happening! argh!

I believe any two posts linking to the same URL are treated as a cross-post, and that is discovered at instance-level. There's nothing more to it than creating two posts in different communities with the same link.

ETA: But to answer your question directly, there's no support for doing that as a single action with Jerboa yet.

I don't even know how to cross post on the normal website

There is an extra icon for cross-posting

Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
