Still trying to get my bearings here.

My account is through Lemmy.World and when I visit the Movies and TV community through lemmy.world/c/[email protected], I only see a few posts. But when I visit https://lemmy.film/c/moviesandtv, there’s a lot more activity.

Did I mess something up in my settings or is this normal? Do I need to have multiple accounts for other instances?

Thanks, y’all.

    Some instances are defederating from other instances due to the increased moderation workloads. This will hopefully improve once better moderation tools exist.

    It could also be a technical issue, some instances are not configured correctly to federate at the speeds currently needed. This post on lemmy.ml details how to increase federation speed to handle the influx of new content.

    Other than that, it could be servers are overloaded and federation back logs exist. I’m not aware of any other issues hampering federation at the moment, but they could definitely exist.

    Hopefully this all clears up in time with support from the community.
