    I don’t understand why the Fediverse doesn’t adopt peer to peer Popular tabs. That’s the only benefit that a centralized server has, is to let people know what is collectively being talked about.

    Imagine one big list that refreshes every so often that is stored locally on instances, and it just aggregates and sorts what’s getting traffic across all instances.

    Obviously it could be opt in and moderated by instance via blacklists and whitelists.

    Suddenly, it doesn’t matter if its federated or not

      This would be very good for Lemmy, I’ve just started an instance and trying to find content from all the federated servers can be a bit of a pain…
