Ok, as a user on lemmy.ml, I'm pretty sure none, or close to, of my posts and comments are being federated.

I don't see how Lemmy will fill the gap of Reddit - it's resulting in fragmentation

    You're correct that you can't just go to one community on one instance and see every new technology discussion that is taking place on Lemmy, but you CAN subscribe to all of the technology-related communities on different instances and scrolling through posts of communities you're subscribed to will show you all the discussions you want to see.

    Ideally yes, but for a more niche community, federation is slower and posts don't get pushed through. I can see a lot of confusion when someone creates a niche sub because they thought it didn't exist, when in reality it does, and they were just the first to search for it from their server.

    The problem is that federation doesn't work very well just yet. I see different subscriber stats based on which instance I view from. It's very confusing for a new user.

    It doesn't help that there are people trying to cybersquat on communities. I see a lot of mods create 20 new communities with no content. That's not helping anyone.
