Lemmy has been feeling pretty empty the past couple of days. That just really goes to show how important federation really is.

I noticed that as well, thought maybe things were just slowing down, but it's good to know it was the software and not a sudden drop in community involvement. Since admins became aware of the bug and began restarting their servers as an ad-hoc fix, I've been seeing way more engagement on my instance.

Yes and no, if you have enough users you do not need federation for a server to not feel empty. But overall many servers do not have that many users, so federation with larger ones is essential.
