Folks pls take a look at this. One of our comrades could use some help rn. My favourite person on Lemmy, sharing the link or boosting for engagement would be helpful too. ❤️
It's still not my post.
Something is definitely wonky then because I’m seeing this post as a cross-post from VisualArts which is a post, of this piece of art, made by you. Like, I’m fine to believe you but you can understand where I’m coming from here. In the comments the only link is your link to the VisualArts community(now the correct one as well but that was after).
None of these posts are made by me, I'm only commenting.
This post was made by someone with the username SnokenKeekaGuard, with a link indicating the post is crossposted from a visualarts community. But that is followed in the text body of this post by a different link which leads to a help_others community, which is made by a poster called Kasane Teto which is about the help needed by someone called Stamets.
And I, a commenter called Rob_T_Firefly, am none of these people.
Screenshot of this post as it appears on Lemmy in a desktop browser follows, yellow text added by me. If your Lemmy app isn't showing you all this info somehow, your app stinks and you need a better app or a normal web browser.
Ah sorry, didn’t notice that(it’s why I generally identify myself as a separate commenter). Anyway, this just confirms that the issue is that app I’m using isn’t showing me everything and if was I obviously wouldn’t be making this comment.
No worries. Best of luck!
