yea, I already got this, but in the end it is still a copy of it?
That was a good explanation with the "copies" of yours - that explains why sometimes the original link and the fed.link from my instance (feddit in this case) was different and not 100% identically (sometimes posts were missing on mine - and I wondered).
So the only way, not to get a copy and 100% up to date "view" is to make an account on the local instance, I assume?
ah ok. I understand. Thank you very much!!!
But is it necessary that one member of an instance at first needs to create the very first copy (at first) by doing how you explained before (searching on own instance...)? So if no one does, there will be no copy at all on my instance? Or is it done automatically by the system how federation works and what it is?
