Are you annoyed by lemmy crossposts? (sopuli.xyz)

Crossposts might be annoying, because

essentially they are the "repost" feature of lemmy. And repeats might be low quality spam, because you have to look at the source, how often it was reposted already, etc.
crossposts might seem like a cry for unwarranted attention, but they might be necessary in a fractured federated system like Lemmy …

Or do you not care when realizing "this is a crosspost"?

If anything, I just stumbled with this setting in the Summit Lemmy client for Android:

I just started using it so I'm still gonna check if I see less duplicated or cross posts... (I always hid my read post before starting my doom scrolling session, so I'd suggest that is a requirement for my testing).
