It kind of is, but mostly scripts to post to multiple communities and instances at the same time, at the beginning people said we needed content at any cost, now? I guess we still do?
But it’s rare to see someone post once and letting it federate, they rather post it everywhere (even if sometimes it barely fits a community) and get their sweet upvotes.
Crossposting was supposed to help but sometimes I still see the crosspost and the original post for whatever reason.
This is specially notable for news communities, meme/shitposting (constantly reposting the same things, sometimes even with the reddit watermark) and the nsfw instance (which is basically full of sellers and their cringe commenting bots).
