I recently setup a new instance and have federation enabled. I tested with the curl command and its returning a proper JSON response. How long does it typically take for an instance to start federating with others?

It should happen right away. Have you subscribed to any communities?

It took a few hours but the more people started using the instance the faster items started to get populated.
