wait, so if you federate with another instance through one community, you won't get to see the rest of the feeds from that instance?
would subscribing to the domain directly (like kbin allows, maybe lemmy could in the future) reduce the number of actions to 700^2?
This would increase server load and traffic by a huge amount though, and would the benefit really be that big?
There are already quite good places to find communities for stuff you're interested in, and less niche stuff will be federated "automatically" by these rules unless you're on a small instance.
Good community lists:

Sorry! My bad, numbers are incorrrect but I'm not sure how to calculate correct numbers lol. Wouldn't it be 700x699 or 699x699 because instance wouldn't have to federate with itself?
oh yeah, it is
n * (n - 1)
bc ~700 bots need to do ~700 minus 1 actions

inside anif
statement checking if the bot domain is the same as the subscribing one would suffice
