You can cross-post by clicking this button of two squares, with one on top of the other.
This will lead you to a menu where you can change the content and title of the crosspost and select a community to crosspost to.
On Voyager, go original post. Select the three dots at top right and scroll down to crosspost. Go from there.
Commenting because same and I want to easily find this in the future
This is what the “☆ Save” is for.
You can also do it manually. If you copy the URL of a post (not the URL to the post, but the URL the post is linking to, like the article or image being shared) and use that in a new post, it gets detected as a cross-post.
Two two squares next to the star icon on the web interface allow you to crosspost.
Apps have that feature too but it's app dependent
oh ty
