@darius I understand not wanting trending type content, and my preference is still to look at my home feed of course, but I like having an explore page to find new people to follow, perhaps interested in topics other than the topics the people I follow are boosting.

Regarding the second part, I was under the impression that posts become trending with amount of boosts/favorites, and since we only have a few users + favorites arent federated, the explore page will stay empty for a long time.

@visne yeah I get that. Do you know about relays? They are basically a way for you to subscribe to a source of further information about the fediverse so your server in some ways ingests information more like a bigger server. Info here:

@darius @visne be careful with relaying though, it can slow down the server a lot.

@darius Yep, I've already enabled a bunch of them. I think theres a few on that page I haven't added. Is there any harm in just adding as many relays as you can find?
