Is there any instance with a Federated feed that is actually legible?

@frankramblings the federated timeline is all timelines at once, no?

@jodywhitesides Almost. If someone in your instance follows someone on another instance, their instance will appear in your Federated feed.

@jodywhitesides @frankramblings as far as I understand it is the Federated time line the combined public time lines of all instances...

@RyuKurisu @frankramblings that's how I understand it as well Chris.

@jodywhitesides @RyuKurisu Almost, but not quite. This is the best explanation I've seen: https://mastodon.social/@amasikel/1746809

@frankramblings @RyuKurisu and as someone in the comments pointed out - must be why some accounts follow someone from every instance.

@jodywhitesides @RyuKurisu exactly! And it's why most instances have a follow bot that follows someone from as many instances as possible.
