I've been an avid sync user for years but am relatively new to Lemmy so sorry if this isn't a sync issue.

Since I'm new I currently sort from everything by new. But I notice fairly frequently that I'll get a high density from a low number of communities as I scroll. Sometimes it's purely due to a flood of new posts but I've also noticed that I'll get many posts clumped together that span several months time.

Is this something that is coming from my instance (lemmy.world) vs. How sync is pulling from the feed?

Thanks!
