I just crossposted something using Thunder and another user let me know that my crosspost did not show that the other post was the original.

See here: https://lemmy.ca/comment/11901004

Not sure how that can happen but seems like a bug in Thunder then?

    So it that just Thunder doing that? Because it sounds like a great feature, maybe the wording is deceiving since its only technically a cross post. But its nice to see the together.

    Could maybe be changed to Duplicate Post or something like that.

      No. Thats how all cross-posts on lemmy work.

      The “cross-posted from” does nothing, and is redundant.

      Any client with proper cross-post metadata support will link to all other posts with the same URL in the same way.

      Yeah, what I just explained seems to be a Thunder-only thing. I really do like the ability to see the list of everywhere else that a certain URL has been posted to, but it would definitely be nice if it was more descriptive about the relationship between the posts
