Many of the subscriptions I’m making are to magazines that are coming from lemmy or other nstances because these are the ones making their way into my feed. Is there any downside to this in the fediverse?
Is there any reason (technical or otherwise) why I should prefer magazines that are at kbin.social (or kbin.anything) or does it literally not matter at all?
Edited to add: Thanks for all the good answers, I get it now!
@be_excellent_to_each_other in principle as that’s the point of federation, it’s value-neutral to participate in such comms.
But say you’re concerned about downtimes or culture or you’re anticipating that instance will not be reachable or even it increases traffic load, then maybe you’ll find it sensible to support a local community or magazine
