crossposting is great to spread the word. what sucks is that reddit built the feature, and then calls it bRiGaDiNg when you make use of the feature and crosspost something the advertisers/overlords don't approve (like bad reviews, reddit criticism) and ban you for it. they're coding these buttons and then forbid you to use them, it's mental

the way I read it was that Minecraft is a community that holds the contributions of its base in high regard, and that's why they can't associate with reddit anymore because reddit now stands for shitting on its users and destroying their work instead of cherishing it.
