These posts are pretty hostile to annyone not on a lemmy instance. All they contain is a link to the aussie.zone site which is unreadable without creating a logon on that site. So basically useless and clagging my timeline.My only options are going to be mute or block you but it would be better if the site software behaved in a more friendly manner.
It's a post on the Lemmy Perth community that links to an ABC article about Perth. I don't know what you expect OP to do differently. There's no requirement to create an account to view it on Lemmy, so in the worst case it's just two clicks to access the linked article, or one click to access OP's commentary on said article.
FWIW you're on Mastodon, which is infamous for a poor non-standards-compliant implementation of ActivityPub. So it's more than a little ironic for you to come from that platform and be so incredibly rude to OP over something that is entirely out of their hands.

People who just publish a link are annoying. People who publish a link that you can't follow are a pain.
And yeah whatever ... I just want people to stop duping non-posts into my timeline ... pretty arrogant if you ask me.
Consider our perspective: we're on https://aussie.zone/ (a Lemmy site) making normal posts to https://aussie.zone/c/perth .
aus.social has decided to federate this community and interpret this post as a Mastodon post that you're seeing. We didn't choose for that to happen, most of us didn't even know that was happening, and for us, it's not nice to see someone coming over and blaming us for what Mastodon has done and threatening to mute or block us.
Your concern is real and valid, but we're not the ones causing it and we can't fix it. It's a Mastodon problem.
