Fwiw, while I much prefer full cross-posts, in practice we can’t actually force people to do stuff. Insofar as people are making the choice between “not post on LW, while posting elsewhere” and “link post on LW” I still prefer the latter.
But note that we generally don’t curate (or at least have a higher bar for curating) posts that are not fully crossposted, so there’s at least some incentive to post the full text on LW.
I prefer lesswrong-specific posts, and while I like them less, I’m happy to have both crossposts and linkposts. My comment was intended to be a hint that a linkpost should be labeled as such (and I do appreciate a summary or excerpt) or a crosspost should be complete.

Okay I posted the whole thing here now.
Thank you. Greatly appreciated.
