What do you notice about the comments on this post? https://piefed.social/post/555259
The post was made in the news@lemmy.world community and other posts linking to the same news article were made in technology@lemmy.world and in askusa@discuss.online. 3 different posts in 3 different communities.
PieFed de-duplicates them and only shows the post once in the timeline and when viewing the post all the comments on those 3 posts are shown in one place.
The fragmentation problem is solved.
I only see one title and one post body; what happens if 3 people share the same link but with 3 different titles and description bodies?
Do they get merged, does one get arbitrarily selected, or does this only work on posts with identical link+title+body?
