I might be wrong but I think the maliciouscompliance on the lemmy.ml instance you linked is a wholy different version of maliciouscompliance than the one on lemmy.world. It's hard to tell because the lemmy.ml one 404s for me now.
oh sorry - i made the link wrong. fixed, it should be https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]
Ok that update clears up the question lol definitely taking about the same community in both those links. My theory is that each instance is reporting the number of users in their instance that joined the community but I can't find anything to back that up with. Good question following to see if we can get a more authoritative answer.
Also is there a good tutorial on fediverse that goes into details?
Are you still looking? What would you like to know - the technical details, or what each instance feels like, or just a general "i don't care how it works, I just want to jump into the conversation"?
I am looking for something that goes into technical details from a developer's perspective. How does the ActivityPub protocol structured, how one app receives data from another (e. g. Lemmy to Mastodon), how does an admin de-federates another instance etc.
