Like does content get mirrored to my instance and then mine distributes it ala BitTorrent or is my instance it’s own thing?
I run my own instance because the content on it will always be very snappy, since it mirrors the text content that I’m subscribed to. It’s distributed like email or RSS are, in that you choose to subscribe to something, and then it is federated onto your instance when new activity occurs.
