The major concern is whether to cross-post so that members of only one community can see posts from the other, or to avoid cross posts so that people subscribed to both don't see duplicates
As with almost every other question about the fediverse, we already discussed this to death decades ago and came up with the answers for email. Do what you'd do for two mailing lists on the same topic.
I have literally never in my life managed a mailing list. I have no idea what your answer even implies.
I wasn't referring to managing. I was referring to posting, as a user. If you haven't done that either, that doesn't mean you can't find all the discussions and decisions and rules and policies people came up with over the last four decades.
