reposts are bad, bla bla bla

but if almost nobody saw it before, or new people saw the repost for the first time, is it really a bad thing?

i see many reposts in communities, but both the [oc] and the [repost] do get many upvotes, which means that there are definitely some people who missed the post before; the question is: should reposts be allowed within a smaller time frame (if at all), and whether it’s worth the sacrifice of the imaginable property of q u a l i t y of content

i’m interested to hear what you think
