+.Ss Subscribing to Fediverse Relays
|
|
|
+Since version 2.69, a
|
|
|
+.Nm
|
|
|
+instance can subscribe to LitePub (Pleroma-style) Fediverse Relays. Doing this improves
|
|
|
+visibility and allows following hashtags. To do this, you must create a special user named
|
|
|
+relay and, from it, follow the relay actor(s) like you do with regular actor URLs. This
|
|
|
+special user will start receiving boosts from the relay server of posts from other instances
|
|
|
+also following it. It any other user of the same
|
|
|
+.Nm
|
|
|
+instance follows any of the hashtags included in these boosted posts coming from the relay,
|
|
|
+they will received as if they were for them.

+Lowering the data retention time for this special user is recommended, as the amount of
