I’m just getting familiar with lemmy fediverse and trying to make my way through it after getting out from reddit. I’m trying out liftoff app for android and I’m seeing way more double posts from different instances from same users. Same content from same users on multiple instances. I thought fediverse supposed to, You post in whatever instance you are and it’ll be shared among all instances. I’m more confused now.

    Are you sure you’re not on All via Everything? Which would show the version retrieved by lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, beehaw etc as individual rows.

      It was on All via Everything. So it shows same posts of different instances as different rows? Now I feel stupid. Sorry for wasting all your time really. Edit: But still I’m wondering why post same content on multiple instances.
