I would assume so. But I see quite some organic content as well, with good interactions in the comment sections. I’m pretty happy. 90% of what was on reddit was of no interest to me as tends to be the case with any large content aggregator.
I’m pretty new to federation. What can I do with these two instances? Can I somehow follow them with my current account? Or do I have to create a separate account on both instances?
Agree. Even if you post a top level comment you are likely to get a response and start a conversation.
Interesting approach, could be a good solution for some of the issues mentioned in this thread.
