Let’s say we have lemmy instances A, B, C.

alice from A makes a post “Hello, world” to B. What happens? How is it processed on servers A, B, C and how do users from A, B, C receive her post?

    Piefed instances now do have a form of this for instance admins to populate new instances.

    Admins can:
    -pull the lemmyverse data and subscribe to a bunch of communities at once
    or
    -target a single lemmy or mbin instance, get the list of communities that instance hosts, and subscribe to a bunch of communities on that instance.

    Both have some tunable settings to allow admins control over how many communities are followed.

    Its not an end-user thing, but it should help with setting up new instances and them not being so ‘empty’.
