It is fair to say that my perspective was much the same as what you are saying. Thank you for the explanation, I will try to let go of some of those misconceptions.

This may just be my ignorance, but aren't nonbinary and transgender mutually exclusive?

In any case, it appears like you are making efforts to better yourself, so I hope that you can move on and make the world around yourself better too. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

They already offer a subscription service. And on top of that they have not-so-microtransactions in their shop.

The rarest human resource there is: good management.

Even though it's a corporate spokesperson, they wouldn't have requested anonymity if they were allowed to talk about it...

Are mastodon users stupid or just on a which hunt?

After the point in time where you made the connection, you will see activity start coming in from their connections. So you should gradually see their followers populate as those people make new posts, which get federated to your instance through your connection to them.

Especially if the connection you made is the first time the remote instance has been interacted with, it's going to look barren at first because there is basically no capability to sync history. You can think of it like an RSS feed.

(This is oversimplified - it's possible that ActivityPub might allow for historical items to be synced just like RSS publishers can choose to include older data. I would speculate that it's not commonly done for bandwidth reasons if it is possible.)

A downside to this is that if you're trying to read through historical posts (from before you made the connection) you will have to click through to the hosting instance to get a complete view.

An upside to this is that because you only see content posted after the connection is established, you are guaranteed to be seeing new posts from active users.
