The easiest would be to unsubscribe from two of them. Or even better, if people could stop cross-posting.

Except cross-posting has a purpose. In that example, one of the posts was to beehaw while another was to lemmy.world. Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world so users on beehaw are only going to potentially see two of the three cross-posted posts. If they also defederate from lemmy.ml, those users would only see one.

So yeah, the solution is to unsubscribe from two of those communities because they're essentially 3 completely different groups that just happen to have the same name and general focus. Either that or just get used to it.
