How to crosspost on Lemmy?
Title
What is the syntax to cross post? E.g. I post to c/linux and I want to crosspost to c/technology
I couldn't find this documented anywhere.
Follow up question: can it work across instances and how do you do it?
Syndicated from the fediverse. Read and engage on the original instance.

This is the crosspost button. If you're using a mobile app, some of them don't support crossposting yet. Click this button, choose the community you want to crosspost to, and voila. And yes, it works across instances.
When I click that it looks essentially the same as editing the post. Do I just scroll to the bottom and pick the new community?
Yeah, pick the community you want to crosspost to and hit "create".
Yes.
Back before Reddit had a crosspost feature, we'd just repost it to another sub with [x-post] in the title and post a link to the previous post in the comments.
What about wefwef?
What?
It's a PWA Lemmy client, doesn't seem to support crossposting yet https://wefwef.app/
Y’all, I’m aware what wefwef is. It’s my daily driver. My question is: What in the world does it have to do with the topic of this thread? Your comment seems like a total non-sequitur
The topic is crossposting on Lemmy. Wefwef is a Lemmy client. I want to crosspost using wefwef.
My logic dictates this is related to this topic, isn't yours?
Btw, thanks for teaching me a new word - sequitur
PWA app: wefwef.app
Yes, I’m currently using it. But what in the world does it have to do with this thread’s topic?
They’re probably asking how to do it on the PWA.
It's wefwef. /s
