- Not regarding using or support for Lemmy: context, see the list of support communities and tools for finding communities below
- Not ad nauseam inducing: please make sure it is a question that would be new to most members
- An actual topic of discussion
Looking for support?
Looking for a community?
- Lemmyverse: community search
- sub.rehab: maps old subreddits to fediverse options, marks official as such

If you're on the web UI, this is the crosspost icon
you'll find it just below your post title and username etc. All you need to do is select the community you want to cross-post to. You can optionally also add extra text, and tailor the title to make it more relevant.
If you're on an alternative UI and don't have this feature, well I think that's probably why we get so many duplicate posts so it may be worth raising with the developer(s) of your app.
I'm using Jerboa at the moment. On the mobile UI the «create a cross publication isn't exactly that, it quotes the first publication and credits the lemmy link (original link is lost also). Thanks for pointing to it out anyways !
