A possibly nice UX could be clients grouping all crossposts from the same author together in a little stack, but showing the local or oldest version “on top”
I’m hoping eventually there will be a ‘merged’ view for this situation, so all the comments are amalgamated, and the article appears once only. Whether that can happen server side or will need to be an app-specific feature, I guess time will tell.
If you are subscribed to the same mag 3 times, well it’s on you. You want volume you have it.
What is possible is to filter through a script and only show the local one.

Initially I thought you were saying they subscribed to a single magazine from the same instance three times and was thinking “Is that even possible?”.
Then I had a closer look and realised they were 3x different magazines on different instances but all with the same name.
Makes sense that it would appear 3x times.
