The article is AdGuard centric but it sheds light on the whole process where Google suddenly decided to ban ad blockers.

I'm so tired of people like triple ad quadruple posting in every other damn instance, we're all federated, we dont need every post in every instance, thats called spamming. It literally takes the entire incentive to have more than one instance away from the entire Federated system when you use it this way.

If you feel like you're not getting as much engagement as you suspect you should have, it's probably because I'm not the only one blocking you to avoid seeing your spamming.

But muh reachability? Because not everyone is subscribed to the same communities.

Lemmy's webui only shows these once, so probably worth raising to the app developer.

Also, beehaw cannot see [email protected], whereas they can see the one on [email protected]. The [email protected] comm is mainly individuals who grew tired of r/privacy and wanted a space with less of the conspiracy-like paranoia, so some of those subs may not actually be interested in following the other two general privacy comms here on lemmy.

TL;DR IMO the three posts in this scenario make sense to me
