Crossposting is where someone else’s content has been carried across to another Subreddit by another user. So, for instance, if you see a post about a cute spider in r/awwnverts and you think that r/spiderbro would love it too (or r/mildlyterrifying, depending on your viewpoint) you might decide to Crosspost it there. If you do, it is good practice to include a disclaimer, alerting the audience that the post is a Crosspost (or x-post) of the original, like this example[1]. You’ll need to make sure that you understand the rules[2] before you do this as Crossposting in a subreddit that doesn’t allow it will cause your post to be deleted and may result in a ban.

Reddit has a native feature for crossposting existing content to another subreddit. Click on the Share button below any post you wish to crosspost, then from the drop-down menu, click on Crosspost. On mobile, this is also an option on the Hamburger menu. On the next page, select the community you want to crosspost to, then enter a title or quote, and add a label or a flair, if necessary.
