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.

People are cross posting in any and all vaguely related communities to try and get traction. It's a little annoying but it's not too different from what people do on reddit all the time.
