Come on federation, do catch up! I can see @alexl's posts if I look on his server, but looking locally it's a good few hours/day behind.

@penguin42 @alexl did you follow him already? If you Just followed someone it can take some time

@alexl @xvilo yes, I only just followed him, so I guess it's still bubbling through

@penguin42 @alexl yeah it takes some time then. I don't know why, but I think it's in the Mastodon Queue system. All operations are queued and then executed at a later time. While it may look like your seeing the toots from some other instance, the toots are actually imported in this instance (that how it works everywhere). So you're never really seeing a live version, rather a local copy.
