I first used lemmy on lemmy.world but due to its size I had several issues of things just not loading and needing a full page refresh. So I tried to set up my own instance and it works mostly but the federation aspect is leaving me with a few questions.
Will remote communities only sync new posts from when I subscribed or will past posts show up eventually?
Is having a single user instance realistic or should I try find another small instance?
Calling these "old person traits" is making it sound like they are no longer valid. All points in the image are things any sensible person would agree with
