As far as I’ve seen FAQs is should be so but my test comment doesn’t appear on the host server, just on lemmy.world. Is this a sync issue, or a weird feature?

    No, every single federated server has to subscribe. They start out with empty databases and only get new incoming content when users start to subscribe, community by community.

    Only now is there a tool to bulk-subscribe, lemmy-helper, intended for server operators. And frankly, Lemmy federation is not scaling well, too much overhead and lack of code maturity.
