Amazon is phasing out its checkout-less grocery stores with “Just Walk Out” technology, first reported by The Information Tuesday. The company’s senior vice president of grocery stores says they’re moving away from Just Walk Out, which relied on cameras and sensors to track what people were leaving the store with.
Could we please stop crossposting to 7 different communities?
?? I didn’t post this anywhere else? Or even see it anywhere else?
I’m not saying you did this, but someone did.
I scroll through to see if things have been posted before. If I don’t see it, I assume it hasn’t. And I use a client so I don’t see if there are cross posts because it doesn’t display them.
You can see from the screenshot you posted that it was only posted one other time in this community. And that was by me, posting many hours after this one. So you blaming @Stopthatgirl7@lemmy.world is very unfair.
As for why I posted it, simple: federation problems. I looked and didn’t see it already posted, because for whatever reason, on my instance when viewing this community, it didn’t appear. Only when someone else posted it and linked to this post on their instance did I ever become aware of it. If you look at this post on my instance you’ll note only two comments show up, and that’s because they’re the comments I forced to show up by manually searching for them using a different instance’s URL. (Not sure why, but even when trying to search for it, I can’t get your post with the actual screenshot to show up on my instance, hence my reply to this comment instead.)
I’m not blaming any specific person, I’m blaming whoever thought it was a good idea to cross-post this 7 times.
Ok sure, that explains it. I should have thought about that.
Eh personally I don’t think there’s a problems with cross-posting. They’re different communities and different people might subscribe to them.
As for the federation issue, I don’t think you should have thought of that. I know I didn’t. Apparently it’s a long-lived issue with lemmy.world federation. Anyone would have assumed federation issues were resolved a while ago.
