I get that, but their mission seems to be against the concept of federation. They want a safe space.

The way BeeHaw is run makes me wonder why they even bother with federation. They want a safe space.

The main issue is that Lemmy instances, by default, only know about their local communities and remote communities that the users of that server have deliberately subscribed to. Some smaller instances are running federation helpers which are bots that search for remote communities to fix this.

It's a bot to find remote communities. By default, Lemmy instances only know about their own communities and those that the users have deliberately subscribed to.

Started with a really small instance, didn't really have a whole lot of content in All and struggled to find communities, so I joined lemmy.world, which got me a lot more content and communities, but now it's constantly having issues. So I'm trying this instance (as an alt for now) because there is a federation helper running on it. I'm honestly not sure which instance I will stick with long-term.
