can we stop saying "feature not a bug" without objectively considering alternatives

It's stupid really. You are taking the choice out of person's hands. So what, I am supposed to automatically broadcast everything I post in other communities, all the music I listen to, the streams I am watching? Have a share button... sure, but not automatically broadcast it.

I can't control what a client displays, but I don't want to see random non-community replies in my community. Nor would I want to spam my followers with content not intended for them because they don't share those interests.

Imo it should stay kind 1s but clients should differentiate between community posts and normal notes and not show the former.

that doesn't solve the problem of broadcasting content to followers who may not care about that content

Hm yeah

What makes communities special is that a group of people share the same interest and you feel a sort of a bond there. You can talk about things and people get it, unlike the general population. Besides, it can be weird stuff that most people won't relate to. I think it's really important that people have to join communities to participate in them, even if it's something as trivial as clicking a join button. Otherwise it's not really a community and you're broadcasting your random niche interests to everyone.
