Not exactly, because instances don’t sync communities nobody is subscribed to. That said, if you’re on a large instance like .world with tons of users, it’s likely you’ll see pretty much anything that could be considered worth seeing.

Oook, that explains why my .world acct, and this one are so vastly different. I pretty much just see news and tech from this instance (and porn, obviously)
