    Ah sheet, that’s a good point. I was thinking, surely the most constrained factors is number of communities. Nope, 'cause the OF creator posts to 100 communities, and their fans seem very likely to subscribe to a lot of those communities lmao.

    @ShadowRunner What are you imagining would be the title that we see on /all or whatever feed?

    Default Condensed/Expanded is a good user setting, we should definitely keep that lol.

      Ah, that’s an excellent point.

      The irony is that the worst cases of shared links are from OF creators - but they bot-blast those links, so they all have the exact same title. That makes it easy - if every duplicate link has the same title, then just use that.

      But for cases where they have different titles, you would either have to choose a generic system-generated title or alternatively, use the title of the instance that has the greatest engagement.

      All of these questions, however, can be designed to be user-selectable in each of our own settings. That way, a person can decide whether or not they even want to stack duplicates, and if so, how is the title chosen.
