Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.
But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.
Give me that hopium guys! 💉

A complete lack of documentation has made the whole process of converting to Lemmy a massive pain in the ass.
Another main problem is that it’s not working how it’s designed.
If an instance gets bogged down, or an instance is misconfigured, then data doesn’t always replicate. Comments go missing from certain instances, etc.
The most basic explanation I can give is that: yes, instances can communicate with each other, but the don’t share data automatically. A user from instance A must go interact with data from instance B by directly browsing to it via the correct URL string (instanceA.com/c/community@instanceB.com), and then interact with content in that community. Data from that specific community will then show up.
That’s a large part of the reason that smaller instances have partial data from larger ones. Their users haven’t interacted with enough communities outside their own instance.
