I'm not sure how this would work, but it'd be great to be able to crosspost local posts to remote communities, as other instances have similar communities centered around similar content

I also don't know what that would mean. The assumption so far has been that posts only exist in one community, but you could post a link to a post into a community, or maybe the system should detect and group posts with the same link?

The intention would be, one post would show up in multiple communities. For example, let's say there's a "main" community on lemmy.ml, wolfballs.com, and narwhal.city, and I wanna make one post and have it accessible to each of those communities, right now, I would have to make a duplicate posts.
Maybe that's not too bad, but I do know that Reddit has a solution for this, and I wonder if Lotide could possibly replicate that on some level here.
