Hmm, sync between federated nodes seems quite laggy. Also importing follow lists seems to be quite slow (at least on the other instance I am on).

Then again that instance has been a bit unstable today.

@nite0wl Seems too many people were going to that instance, could have been causing issues? They shut down registration.
@jamesfirth That seems to be happening to a lot of instances.
@nite0wl Yeah, oh well at least it means people are interested!
@jamesfirth That is true, though how many can we be sure are people or are people who will be trying to use the service rather than just lurk or try it then drop it after a few days?
@nite0wl Only time will tell on this one I think.
