What's considered best practice for multiple images on Pixelfed?

Hey #Pixelfed users, if I have a bunch of images from an event I'd like to share, what's the best way? One post per image? Group images into themes of 1–2? All images in as few posts (max 8 per post on my instance) as possible?

Also, does anyone know how to get them to show up in a Lemmy community, or what that'll look like? How do "Collections" factor into it? @pixelfed

@otter yeah that back-to-back flooding is what I wanted to avoid. Plus it'd be nice if the images are associated with each other on the platform, hence thinking about collections. But tbh I don't have any idea how collections show up.

My other hope is to avoid duplication by posting the same images multiple times on different platforms. I *think* I've seen that mentioning a Lemmy Community will cause a post to be shared to Lemmy? Possibly only with the "cover" image showing up to Lemmy users?
