That kind of sucks to be honest. Thanks for the info. Hopefully in the future the devs can solve it so that small communities can be seen across the fediverse.

Welcome @SallyTAB! I am from NH, so no one from MA will be kicking anyone out on my watch. That said, if and when we get overwhelmed by MA posts, I imagine we’ll need to spread out into smaller more specific communities (New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, etc.) In the meantime, all posts regarding the region are welcome!
