Thanks. I think I’m starting to understand

I’m fine with tankies being blocked, so I’ll stick around here.
Can anyone ELI5 how federation works? Does it mean that I can only subscribe to communities that this instance is federated with, or is that just what shows up on the front page or something?
Digg is technically still around even though it doesn't resemble anything close to the "Digg" I used before the migration. I suspect Reddit will go in the same direction. They will keep pushing ways to monetize it, pushing out a lot of people who just want to chat and argue with strangers on the internet until it basically just becomes a website with a bunch of sponsored links and articles and no real user engagement.
More federated communities were showing up for me last night vs today. I’m thinking it’s a lot of new users bogging both ends down. There’s a lot of growing pains, but I think things should be sorted out eventually. No one was really ready for all of Reddit to onboard
