You can either be active on another social media platform and follow some instructions or pay 0.01 monero to join to prove you know about monero and how to use it

Depending on instance, yes. More general instances absolutely will. An instance like monero.house may not because not everyone is allowed in

Ubuntu 10.10 on a school issued dell latitude d505 with a core 2 duo, windows xp and 512mb of ram. I ran it in virtualbox. I will give one guess on just how well it worked

I dont think so. As an example, take the !technology@beehaw.org community for example. It can have say 1000 subscribers from lemmy.ml but only needs to send content to lemmy.ml once as it comes in. All 1000 subscribers see the cache copy from lemmy.ml and a message is only sent back to beehaw.org for comments, votes, etc. With everyone having their own instance beehaw.org would have to send updates to each one instead of sending an update to one instance and 100 users seeing it. A good level to strive for is many small communities of say a few thousand (1-5 thousand or so). That way one single server doesnt get to massive but federation requests arent overwhelming instances either

You seem like the right person to ask. If a user on instance b makes a comment on a post that is on an instance "a l" community my understanding is instance b sends that comment to instance a and then instance a sends messages to instances c, d, e, f, and so on telling them about the new comment?

News websites tech sections via rss. Mainly epoch times, new york post, and one america news. I bet if i used some others like slashdot i would prob know about newer stuff sooner, but it keeps me updated. Though i honestly havent been keeping up to much lately because every damn story is "AI" this and "AI" that. Otherwise its "ChatGPT" this or "BARD" that. I am absolutely not interested in closed source AI
