The reason I never complain about reposts is because there is shit like this out in the world that finds me when I need it. Thank you poster, you’re like a college radio dj doing your thing vs the clear channel guys who have to play what is most popular
I never complain about reposts either. Even when I was back on reddit back in the day. If you’re complaining about reposts then you’ve got one of two things happening. Either the post truly has been made an insane amount of times in a short period of time or you’re just terminally online.
I can’t remember, for the life of me, a post that was made two months ago. Moreover, there’s also the arrogance of just thinking that you are the only person on the platform. What about all the others who never saw it the time it was posted? Do they not matter? What about the people who have joined since? And those who just found the community? What about all those who don’t look at older posts?
Unless the repost is made within 30 days, I generally don’t say anything. If it’s made within a week, I might ask if the OP saw the other post, but that’s it. Personally, I try to stick to a rule to not repost the same thing at all. I label the files that I upload so that I know which ones that I have posted. I see things and I’m cross-checking and referencing all the fucking time. But if somebody else does repost, I do not care. I have more important things to be upset about then a couple of pixels that are the same as some other pixels a while ago.
There were times on reddit that bots were doing the same memes on the same pages like 4x in one day. This was just the first visible sign of the death of the Internet.
