Is there any benefit to host my own instance?

    If you host your own, do you need to establish federation with all other instances or only with the ones you want to use communities from?

    If I only federate with lemmy.world, would I be able to see comments on /c/[email protected] on my instance made by a user from lemmy.ml?

    Would a user that reads /c/[email protected] on lemmy.ml see my comments, if I only federate with lemmy.world?
