They will. My experience community building thus far is that if you can build up one anchor community to the point where people are organically sharing content and commenting, other adjacent communities will start to generate the same sorts of things with smaller subscriber bases because that anchor community is keeping people's eyes here. Just a question of time.
Speaking of sharing content, is there a way to crosspost around here yet?
Yes, when you make a post look at the line where the 'save post' button is at the bottom of the entry. There will be two overlapping squares. That's the crosspost button.
Never noticed that. Do any apps feature it too?
On Eternity, I have the three dot menu above posts that has 'Crosspost' as an option.
Edit: Didn't realise this was an year old comment, sorry.
Thunder does, but the body text is not automatically copied like in the web interface.
I've only used jerboa but I can't seem to find a crosspost button. Every app is alpha at best though so I'm sure it will come.
