Parang naging default instance kasi ng most of those who join Lemmy ang .world, which dapat mag spread out between instances para hindi ma-strain yung capacity ng mga bigger instances. Kaya nga may federation. It's not that hard to subscribe to a community from another instance naman. Most of the communities I'm subscribed to are not in lemm.ee but that's the beauty of federation, I can still interact with the other instances while never actually leaving my instance. Siguro kailangan din natin i-direct and mga incoming users to other instances para ma share ang load between multiple instances. Just my 2 cents.
I definitely agree with this, but damn, the upkeep for having an instance of your own can be a strain on your server, though. We have a small instance of ours in order to subscribe to other instances (not just lemmy.world) and in a span of 4 weeks, the database got up to 6 gigs already… can’t imagine how much it would cost to have more than 15 users. Donations would have to be a default setup if people want a particular instance to keep running and not have it become like Reddit, and I understand better now why some have to pass a particular screening first.
Huh. I just realized how ActivityPub could be a double edged sword if I'm understanding it right. If you have 5 users in your instance who are all subscribed to the same community on another instance, then you'll only need to store a single copy of that community in your instance. But if all 5 each have a different subscription, then you'll be storing a copy of each community for all 5 users. The first scenario would be more efficient in terms of storage.
