    I’m not hugely familiar with how federation works or why it works the way it does, but why is this better than say instances only hosting what is put on their instance and the browser fetching from multiple instances? So when I want to view something posted on instance A with my account on instance B, instead of instance B keeping a cache of the post my browser just fetches the content directly from instance A?
