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 be nice if I could share one post across multiple communities and then have all the comments in just one place. As it is now everyone has to decide for themselves where to comment.

      how will this deal with communities and instances having different rules and “culture” of their own?

      oh, and which community’s moderators are going to have permission to moderate the comments section?

      I have not seen a clear answer to either of these questions on any variation of this proposal. do y’all see every community as the same thing with a different domain at the end?

        Don’t see cultures mixing as a problem, more of an opportunity. But the moderation really is one. I think that’s an unsolvable blocker.

        A possible solution to moderation is allowing communities to delete a parent comment (+ the child comments) from that community w/o actually fully deleting the comment

        Therefore if you view that specific post with the context of a specific community, you only see the comments that are not deleted, which have (most likely) been moderated already

        If you view the source post directly, you would see all the comments for that post
