  • Your instance is the one that federates. However it starts with a user subscribing to that content. Your instance won’t federate normally without user interaction.

    Normally the solution for the second part is relays. But that isn’t something Lemmy supports currently. This issue is very common with smaller instances. It isn’t as big of a deal with bigger instances since users are more likely to have subscribed to more communities that will automatically be federated to your instance. You could experiment with creating a user and subscribing to a bunch of communities so they get federated to your instance.
