Is there an app that is focused more on "posting"? (lemmy.world)

I use Boost as my go-to, but as I'm starting to post more and more I'm starting to notice its minor flaws when it comes to heavy posting.

Is there a Lemmy app that has more of a focus on posting features? Like maybe one that allows you to select multiple communities to post to or a more robust text editor etc.

Ah that explains everything lol good thing I also posted to the sopuli version, it’d be nice if there was a warning banner that said you’re viewing a local/cached version and upstream is offline or something lol

You should maybe make a post there to point people to the sopuli one

But that’s also why I was hoping for a multi-post app of some sort, it would be loads easier IMO to “community balance” content like that

One issue is that by keeping both communities active you're not encouraging people to move to all converge on one. Posts can be duplicated but discussions won't

True, but I don't have any good answers for that either, because then any instance is at risk of becoming the "next LW" and we'd just be right back at square 1

The Fediverse also isn't all interconnected so someone on instance A that's defed'd from instance C but not instance B wouldn't be able to see content on C (as we all know). But if "multi-posting" was a thing then someone else fed'd with B and C posting the same content to "duplicate" comms on each ensures everyone gets to see it even if the discussions are split

We really have a long way to go before worrying about that: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active

I usually use lemm.ee due to how federated it is with everyone. Dbzer0 and Programming.dev aren't defederated by a lot of instances either. The bigger issues are usually LW and SJW, but I usually don't post to communities there
