Hello, today I set up my own Lemmy instance through YunoHost, but when comparing posts here and on (for example) lemm.ee, on my instance the same posts have less votes. Is there a setting or something I’m missing?

Edit: also, some comments and posts are missing, how do I federate with more instances? Do I just subscribe to random instances’ communities?

    It will increase over time, and I think it would pass 100 GB in less than a year, but I’m just guessing. You can help reduce this by tweaking some settings with image caching/proxying

      My instance has 82GB of DB size. It is almost two years old. I think you’re overestimating.
