    Not everyone. Just those users who don’t care enough to be picky. I wish they would rotate the instances but this is better than nothing.

      Sorry what do you mean? I see users posting from other instances in my mastodon app (I haven’t used it much).

        Sorry, what do you mean?

        I see users posting from other instances in my mastodon app

        Which would indicate that

        everyone is centralized on the same instance?

        is incorrect.

          Idk this whole thread confuses me. I’m on est.social instance, I’m gonna assume I see everyone who hasnt excluded my instance and vice versa…

            It’s a bit more complicated than that, but yes, that’s the gist of it.
