Both seem to post similar memes and jokes. This community doesn’t have a sidebar text to clarify what the community is nor when to post what stuff where, and it’s not clear why the community exists.

            Not really, if you want exposure then you have the incentive to crosspost. The real difference is you get to choose who moderates you.

              Exposure may be the incentive but I’ve seen divergence between split communities. Crossposting is another activity, another barrier. Sure, it may just be two clicks, but if a reasonable number of users feel at home in one of the two, they likely won’t look at the other. Especially when much of it is duplication.

                I appreciate 196 but the blahaj admins are crazy, which is why I am very thankful there are multiple overlapping 196 communities.

                  Which is a fair point. But kinda besides the split leading to a split in community and content to some degree.
