Proposal to replace

Please refrain from crossposting the same message on multiple channels. It is considered spamming. If you really need do draw attention to your question in another channel, post the link to your initial message instead of creating a new one. This helps keeping the discussion centralized.

The longer, the less people read it. I would stay with the "just don't do it" 😄

[mbonnin]

TBH I think the CoC is very rarely read 😅 . It's mostly used as a reference point when problematic behaviour happens.

[Stefan Oltmann]

So you want to make it even more unlikely people read it? ^^
"tl;dr" 😄

[mbonnin]

I think there are legitimate usages for sharing a question in another channel. And in those cases I would rather have people sharing the link than cross posting several messages.

[Stefan Oltmann]

If I decided it fits better in another channel, I post it there again and delete it from the first channel.

Fair enough 👍. I'm not dying on this hill anyways.
It doesn't look to be such a big problem today so I'm fine not fixing it 😄

I'm not dying on it, too. I just wanted to drop my 2 cents. 😄
Have a good day. 🙂
