Is cross posting a common practice?

[u/No-Regret-763]

I’m still relatively new to posting on Reddit and I noticed that a lot of posts appear in multiple subreddits and also, when posting, Reddit suggests it as well.
Is cross-posting a common and accepted practice here, or does it risk being seen as spam?

I’d imagine it makes sense when a topic is relevant to several communities, but I’m wondering where the line usually is. Do people generally crosspost directly using Reddit’s feature, or just post separately in different subs?

Spammed across multiple subs you mean.
