whether or not approaches being a fundamentally ethical question as the portion of expenditure someone has posting diminishes relative to the totals of posting, commenting, etc; and honestly I don't have any strong bias towards whether it is "moral" to crosspost-by-default, thus effectively pressuring oneself to post less frequently while sharing the rewards across more territories, or target posts narrowly, thus arguably not making any significant disincentivization to the fragmentation of the SN community into territories with gradually less cross-talk.
after thinking through that while typing it all out, I'm slightly biased towards it being morally preferable to both crosspost when the budget allows, and monopost when wishing to reduce crosstalk; ideally the people who crosspost-by-default would be familiar enough with all the relevant overlapping territorial subsets of the generalized SN community that there would not be a resultant harm of blending the potentially valuable emergent diversity of different communities into a tepid blandness of the kind that makes interesting people drift away from places like Reddit even if they don't get shadowbanned first.
