MODERATORS
You raise a valid point. But finding new communities is much harder in smaller instances. So there is a chance the user will not find content they are interested in.
Isn't the intent of federation, however, that every instance should have access to every community? So even those small instances be able to access the same communities.
Not seeing something means you've intentionally defederarated them (or maybe they've defederarated you?)
Or a server is dying somewhere.
They do have access to every community. But it won't show up in the community tab until someone in their instance have already joined that community. Correct me if am wrong.
