Sorry if this seems like a silly question but I have noticed over the last few months my feed(?) has started to act odd.

No matter what I do I don’t see any posts from .world. I checked and mander does not seem to block .world (kinda why I liked this instance) and even weirder is how my feed gets filled with mostly .ml posts with almost no activity no matter how I sort.

This did not happen before and got me thinking, I don’t even know how this works across federated instances.

Does anyone know:

  • How does the sorting work on an instance? Is it all the same no matter what instance it is?

  • Did anything change in the last few months, that would cause all .world (and I assume others) posts to not show?

  • Other then changing instances what can I do to mitigate the weird slanted results?

    Please use your mander account to inform OP that their instance is wildly behind .world - see here

    The delay and eventual deletion of comments and votes will have an obvious effect on mander’s “hot” and “active” algos.

    If you look at this post on mander, it’s not got any of the comments, so there’s no point anyone using a .world community to answer OP’s question.
