Also, why does the federated timeline only show the same stuff as the local timeline? Shouldn't there be more? Is something broken?

@natanji we think it's something on mastodon.social's side? vahnj should be looking into it with garg today, iirc

@natanji There could be something broken, the mastodon.social instance has been under heavy load so you might not be seeing its updates. It has around 100 users for every 1 on other instances at the moment.

@natanji

see the real federation the gnu social one
