Tip for #singleuser or small instance users:
The biggest disadvantage of small instances is the dead federated timeline. Instance admins can subscribe to the classic #relays, but this comes at a high price such as high resource usage and too much noise, depending on the relay. It's either all or nothing.

Instead you can populate your federated timeline by following the #FediBuzz relays. They can be followed as normal users and boost posts based on the hashtag, instance or even language.
Here are a few examples:
@tag-fediverse (boosts the #fediverse hashtag from all instances)
@instance-jasdemi.com (boosts everything from my instance, jasdemi.com)
@language-it (boosts only posts in Italian language from all instances)

Now before you follow any relays, I suggest creating an alt account as this will make you home timeline very noisy. With your main account you can now check out the federated timeline or follow hashtags.

#GoToSocial tip:
If you notice some videos not being fetched by your instance, you can increase the max remote size by modifying the "media-remote-max-size" config. Default is 40MiB.

The more I learn about the #Fediverse and #ActivityPub, the more flawed and broken it feels.
Biggest flaw: Comments are not properly federated. If no one from my instance is following the person replying, I don't get to see it. Why wasn't this fixed until now? Can this even be fixed?
This makes this place feel way more dead than it actually is.

It's not surprising that #BlueSky chose to develop their own protocol(#ATProto) because they saw the flaws and the refusal to fix them.

Good guy #ConcernedApe.
