      Appreciate the clarification! I’ve been trying to wrap my head around how the fediverse works but I’m far from a programmer so some parts are still a bit confusing to me.

      Is it just a different approach to reach the same goal or is there some inherent limitation to how the fediverse works that prevents instances from using crawlers?

          Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed explanation. It really clears up a lot of what I was confused about.

          The community across the board on Lemmy has been so refreshing compared to the last few years on Reddit or any of the alternatives I’d tried before.
