I'm noticing a delay, @JimSpohrer , between updates from the mastodon.social instance and qoto.org , that isn't evident with toots from other instances. This may be attributable to the high volume of recent signups to the largest Mastodon instance.
This may be a case for migrating to a more focused community that isn't the largest. This may be Internet thinking in federation, as compared to mainframe thinking in centralization.
@daviding @JimSpohrer That is correct, mastodon.social got slammed hard with new users. It is highly encouraged to find a smaller community suiting your needs. This way your local timeline might be more to your liking as well as mastodon.social is a 'general topics' instance.
@daviding @JimSpohrer
I read an article in the press that the mastadon.social instance is struggling with volume and that they are working on optimizations.
