No idea how I got there but somehow I saw this post somehow on sh.itjust.works, about a prefab house that was found floating in the Pacific. I wanted to comment but the only login I have is on lemmy.world. Notice the post is from The Picard Maneuver, whose posts I’ve seen many times, and it says lemmy.world above their name.

Lemmy.world has a whitepeopletwitter community but the newest post is 2 months old. This one is from 10 hours ago. Search on the lemmy.world main page for “Minding” turns up a bunch of posts going back months, but this one isn’t there.

I thought I understood how federation works but I’m stumped. Is this really a lemmy.world post? If not, what does the presence of “lemmy.world” on it indicate?

    Interesting. When I search for “white” the “People Twitter” community on sh.itjust.works does not come up. Also doesn’t if I search for “Twitter”. Note that the results include communities on other instances, but not sh.itjust.works. No idea why my search and your search would be different.
