I'm not seeing either the crosspost icon or the star anywhere on my threads or posts?
The guy that responded to you uses a Lemmy-based instance, and you're on a kbin one. I don't think kbin has cross posting yet.
Ah thank you! I did wonder, I think adding crossposting to kbin would be really helpful to growth
What does the cross posting mean? I'm on kbin too
It includes the original poster so after you crosspost you are giving them credit for the post
Usually it means that you can duplicate a post or article onto another group/magazine that's relevant without having to copy and paste. It should be a one button copy.
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't notice you were on kbin, hope they implement it soon
No problem, I thought I'd added it to the post - but missed it out!
It's a post on AskKbin titled "How do I crosspost in kbin" lol
That was edited after the fact.
Yep I edited after the fact for clarity!
I created @BestOf and/or https://kbin.social/m/BestOf and have just gotten familiar with crossposting in kbin. The best I could figure out is 'copy url to fediverse' and pasting it in the 'Submit new link' window.
Are you sure you're logged in to an instance? The pop up help is shown on the cross post where I'm logged in. If I open an incognito window, though, most of the options are gone.
vs incognito
Oh, shoot...I just say effingjoe's post. I'm logged into both lemmy and kbin on my main browser.

Thank you! I will try that, I think crossposting would help a great deal with kbins growth.
Absolutely agree.
