Say we have two different instances, none of which are blocked by or blocking other instances. Theoretically, shouldn’t their results be the same on the “All” page using the same sorting mechanic, e.g., Hot.

But apparently this isn’t so when I tested it on instances with no blocking or blocked by criteria. Can anyone explain to me why? I’m still relatively new to Lemmy, and I am genuinely curious.

PS: I’m using the “recommended” instances from this git: https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances

    its a scaling thing and it makes sense in a lot of ways, discoverability however needs to be better. Inevitable instances will want curated default views while users need more power to see everything or block what they dont like easily.
