    Crossposting unfortunately doesn’t always work (many communities restrict it for example), and many clients still don’t support it properly

      I’m not sure why a community would do that, like are there any that restrict voting? It’s a fundamental part of the platform.

      If we waited until everybody was ready for every feature we would never get any features. I’m really not sure that “third party apps aren’t finished yet” is an argument against using a feature of the platform.

        I’ve seen multiple communities that enforced the no crosspost rule.

        And by “apps not supporting it well” I don’t just mean visually but the fact that there’s no cross-post option/button. If someone uses such a client, they’re simply unable to use the feature even if they want to.
