I have no idea what's the #federation status of this #Mastodon instance at the moment.
There seem to be no backlogs: updates are sent immediately to followers on other instances like mamot.fr. However, most searches of profiles by name and toots by tag from other instances return nothing so far.
This will probably improve over time as people start interacting with more profiles discovered by some accident of history or by following mentions from bigger profiles.
I have now joined a handful #ActivityPub #relays (thank you for the service!).

This understandably has caused a load spike, let's see how it goes.
Seems to work! I can see some #IPCC / #GIEC updates at e.g. https://mastouille.fr/tags/GIEC

What about adding your #Mastodon instance to the #ActivityPub relay https://relay.social.tigwali.fr , so we can hopefully connect a bunch of #EU-based users better? 😇
FYI @nouts
@praetor We run a well-federated relay at mas.to, more details here: https://mas.to/about/more#Relay
@trumpet Thanks! It has worked.
@praetor I've added your instance to the relay approval list, you should now be able to add the relay.
