Every instance's TRENDING NOW is different? how so?

@Sphinx Because federation is different from replication. But an interesting observation nevertheless.

@Sphinx Every instance sees things differently from their perspective. Some federate with this, others not with that, etc. That's my guess for the differences.

Thank you for the reply, It doesn't bother me just curious.😊

@Sphinx @trinsec Take the example in this screenshot. #OpenBSD is tending at fosstodon.org, but how many of those posts are federated to other servers?

@underlap @trinsec

I knew one from mastodon.social is called

Very popular now.

@Sphinx @trinsec Posts with that hashtag seem pretty worthless (when searched from fosstodon.org). Thank goodness it's not trending here.

@underlap @Sphinx I think that hashtag is being trolled so hard right now. I've never seen so many useless 'tips' before. ;)

@trinsec
Yes. For an illustrative example, I'm in fediverse through an instance that has lots of ham radio amateurs (I'm one of those myself).
