I'm curious to hear if you have any thoughts or ideas about this. As a developer I understand very well how Lemmy works, and cant tell at all what might be difficult or confusing.

Each instance has its own rules, and admins can decide which other instances to federate with. You also wont see all content from other instances by default, particularly if you are on a small instance.

Instance list: https://join-lemmy.org/instances

Federation getting started: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/federation_getting_started.html

Improvements to the docs are always good, and if someone wants to make a video about this, that would also be helpful.
