No matter what I do I don't see any posts from .world. I checked and mander does not seem to block .world (kinda why I liked this instance) and even weirder is how my feed gets filled with mostly .ml posts with almost no activity no matter how I sort.

This did not happen before and got me thinking, I don't even know how this works across federated instances.

Does anyone know:

How does the sorting work on an instance? Is it all the same no matter what instance it is?
Did anything change in the last few months, that would cause all .world (and I assume others) posts to not show?
Other then changing instances what can I do to mitigate the weird slanted results?

I decided to do a bit more then just "hot" and "active" and its the same across all of them except "controversial" and "Most comments".

"Most comments" has some .world posts in it but does not match using another instance. The only one that seems to line up is ironically sorting by "controversial",

This is really getting weird and is making it hard to use Lemmy for me. Like I like some of the posts listed but I can not believe the largest instance is not posting anything. To make me more confused this also started at the same time Mander got really slow, and to add to the weirdness refreshing the page gives entirely different sorting of posts maybe one out of five times.

Which one is your other instance?

Used to have .world but for this I just test without logging in.

Mander has important delays with LW
