How to fund the instance is up to the instance owner. The one I'm on has a Patreon. Not sure how the bigger ones are managing.
Why did you pick that instance, out of curiosity?
E: Posted the same comment three times, looks like. Still getting used to this.
I'm Finnish, so it felt like home.
It's cool. I do the same on Reddit.
Patreon seems like a good option.
Is there a way to aggregate instances?
I'm not sure what you mean?
Aggregate, as in collect those instances' feeds and show them combined?
That's what Lemmy does with the instances it federates with.
No aggregate all feeds from all instances?
That would be too much for your feed, I think. And a certain amount of redundancy from communities with overlapping content.
Actually thats your All feed. You have a local feed for your local Instances communities and an All feed for All instances communities.
They just show the same thing for me. Also is anyone else having really bad performance using lemmy.world? Are they going to be able to keep up with this influx of users?

Are you sure you're looking at the right page? My All feed always shows posts from other instances and never matches my local feed.
So far so good, since lemmy is decentralized though users can spread out across many servers to help handle the load while maintaining access to the same aggregated content. You could even run your own personal lemmy instance at home to connect to the lemmy-verse. That way you would be responsible for hosting your own account instead, all while still being able to connect, post, and vote in other instances communities.
