I do it, and honestly I wish there was a way to post a “Connect” Post or something that would appear to the three I post to

There is a cross post button. It adds a link under the post when opened to show other communities it has been cross posted to, but it doesn’t solve the original problem.

Yeah that’s what I use, but when I post to Dungeon and Dragon, and TTRPG if someone is part of those they will see two times my post :/ but if Communities linked to a post where like a tag on the post, the same post would be showed In both communities but it would stay the same post, but maybe that’s approaching what Mastodon is and not Reddit

Ah I see what you are meaning. I’m not sure if that would always be a good thing, even reddit keeps different comment pages for different communities in cross posts because different communities have different conversations.
I don’t have any better way of solving this problem, other than perhaps having the app or frontend collapse the duplicates into a single item that indicates the different communities it’s in and let’s you pick which comments to open.
