I thought it would be good if making a post with a URL alerted me if the same URL has already been posted to another community/ server. Then it could offer to make the body of my post a comment under that post instead.

What do you think, and do any technical people familiar with Lemmy / Piefed / ActivityPub know if suc h a feature is possible without huge overheads?

    I prefer a functionality that detect cross post and show only the latest with an option to see the other duplicates. Since each community has it own rules I may not want my post to be a comment instead
