Is it an in-joke? Or does the person who makes these just enjoy posting them all day?

Because one of the very few people providing content likes those comics?
Post what you want to see.
Looking at the account, they post 1-2 a day, skipping some days. Is that really too much for you? I’m questioning your definition of “dominate” here. It hardly counts as posting “all day”.
It’s all in context. If there are only 1-2 posts per day then yes. There are more of course, but it does feel like a lot.
For me it was too much of it, and do not find it funny, so I blocked the user. But I like that people that enjoy it, still get to see it.
When you say there are more of course, do you mean there are more than 1-2 heathcliff posts a day? I can’t see them.
Blocking does seem the simple solution if you get tired of seeing them, instead of this passive aggressive post that will just make that comic poster feel like a nuisance.
Sorry, I meant that there are a lot more non heathcliff posts. Meaning it’s not the majority.
There’s not… theres almost nothing there. The sub is empty as all heck.

As of this reply, of the 20 links on the frontpage of [email protected] … 9 are “Heathcliff Without Heathcliff”. Sometimes the comic has as many as 15 on the front-page.
The account spams the instance - I just don’t know if it’s an in-joke, the poster just has nowhere else to post an over-used joke, or the mods don’t care about spamming.
I disagree that 1-2 posts a day counts as spam. It is a disproportionate amount of the posts because not enough other users are active. If more people posted regularly, it wouldn’t seem like so much. The user likes the comics, and they get upvoted more than downvoted, so it’s clear more people like them than not. I recommend you block them if you are so tired of seeing them.
I’d say it’s relative. If you’re the predominant thing on the whole all feed on a proper instance, it’s probably much. Doesn’t matter if the actual number is 1, 2 or 400.
I’ve heard people leave Lemmy on their first day because “it’s just meme pictures”. That was also one single community having way more posts than the other communities. And Lemmy defaulting on showing all the local posts instead of subscribed communities.
And it can kill engagement if things get monothematic. And dominated by one user or a niche topic. But that’s not always the case. Depends on the community. And I can’t say if it’s the case here.
TLDR, non enough non-heatcliff content.
Arguably this is non-heatcliff content.
Yes, it is.
I just wish the community had more posts about comic books, given that’s the intended purpose for it and not comic strips, and there are communities for both comic strips and webcomics already. (There is https://lemmy.world/c/comicbooks also for comic books but it’s also less populated).
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
Done. Thank you, @CommunityLinkFixerBot. :-)
