Hey, did the little "cross-posted to:" thing not show up for you? I never write "crossposted from" in post bodies specifically because Lemmy already does it for me, unless Lemmy fails to recognize the OP in which case I do include it.
The WebUI shows crossposts with direct links and the body has a header.
Or maybe I didn't understand you? :)
What I'm asking is:
Why did you write "crossposted from:" and then the link to the original post in the body? I don't understand why you did that when the web UI already credits the crosspost, as depicted in the image I showed where it says "cross-posted to: [email protected]". Click that and it also takes you to the original post, so no need for your post body crediting it.
I then concluded that you probably did that because whatever you use (maybe your home instance of lemmy.world, or that you are not on a browser) doesn't actually show the "cross-posted to: [email protected]", and so you had to put the credit in yourself.
Ah, I see.
If you have a body text (anything), the Lemmy UI will add a crossposting notice (in the body text with the source text being quoted) automatically.
It's done automatically even thought there is a crossposting notice on the UI level.
I actually sometimes remove the notice and quotes when crossposting, but this time I forgot to do it.
Huh. That's weird, because I have put text bodies on some of my crossposted and got no automatic crossposting notice in the body. I only use Lemmy from the browser. Maybe this is a .world thing.
