http://perpetual.education is a design/programming school. We like to be part of the discussion over here at Dev.to / We have time-slots for free conversations for career advice IRL : )
Our blog posts often have little Vue apps in them - and it's all fed from a custom CMS, so - having parity on dev isn't really possible. It would be different if our articles were just markdown. Then you can use the tools they provide to Canonical URLs.
We know that some people have a problem with this: but we will (when we feel it makes sense) write a post something like this:
Hello!
Here's a thing we did (link/video/CodePen/repo)
We did it for this reason (which is why we're showing it to you)
If you like x and y - then it might worth your time
Bye
Which - in many cases / gives added information to the article vs just a copy-paste cross post.
Putting the post or video in a context-specific to Dev.to - (in our minds) - isn't just duplicating the article, but helping someone understand our reasoning and if it's worth their time.
If that is scummy - or spammy - then the internet is already over.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
