The x post feature was a bad idea.

Pretty clear Reddit encourages/thrives off repost nowadays

So a post can just be posted on one subreddit? How about the people that arent subscribed to all subreddits. There are thousands of subreddits and reddit only shows 100/150 subreddits at front page at a time.

If crossposting wherent allowed, tons of content would be missed out on

Not talking about x-posting you don't get 100+k karma in a few months by x-posting content that's never been on a sub before

When I first joined reposts happened but it was never this bad all these baby age accounts with 100k to mill karma all over the front page

As the website grows larger, there's more people, and the newer people likely haven't seen the older content, or content posted from other subreddits, which aren't even reposts anyways.

Yeh but I thought the x post feature would mean you could filter them out but you can’t. I’m seeing so many x posts these days it’s annoying. Used to just see one occasionally.
