Hi all,
When I add a contact from another instance, why can't I see all the messages from all the users in that other instance in my TL?
In mastodon, in the TL always appear all the messages from all users of all instances of which I have added contacts. Instead, Friendica shows me only the messages from my contacts and the instance in which I have my account.

Al añadir a un contacto de otra instancia, ¿por qué no puedo ver en mi TL los mensajes de todos los usuarios de esa otra instancia?
En mastodon, en el TL siempre aparecen todos los mensajes de todos los usuarios de todas las instancias de las que he agregado contactos. En cambio, Friendica me muestra unicamente los mensajes de mis contactos y los de la instancia en que tengo mi cuenta.

Yes, that page shows many more publications, but much less than I would expect.
As I said above, when comparing the public TL of my Mastodon account and the global community page of my Friendica account (in the latter I have almost the same Mastodon contacts and even more) I have noticed a big difference in the amount of posts.
And if I think about it, maybe I haven't taken into account another factor: The amount of users in the same instance. I do understand that. In addition to the number of messages posted by my contacts, there are also messages from other users in the same instance. This sum is different in Friendica and Mastodon instances.
Now that I look at this, I don't see much difference between both instances either. I still see big differences in the amount and variety of messages.

Como yo dije mas arriba, al comparar el TL publico de mi cuenta en Mastodon y la pagina global de la comunidad de mi cuenta en Friendica (en esta ultima tengo casi los mismos contactos de Mastodon y aun otros muchos mas) yo he observado una gran diferencia en la cantidad de mensajes.
Y si lo pienso bien, quisas yo no he tomado en cuenta otro factor: La cantidad de usuarios de la propia instancia. Si lo entiendo bien. A la cantidad de mensajes publicados por mis contactos, se suman los mensajes de los otros usuarios de la misma instancia. Esta suma es diferente en las instancias de Friendica y de Mastodon.
Ahora que miro esto, tampoco veo gran diferencia entre ambas instancias. Aun asi veo grandes diferencias en la cantidad y variedad de mensajes.

When you start following a remote account, your node will be receiving their next public posts, so they will appear in the global community timeline. But your node won’t automatically start receiving all the public posts from all the users of the remote instance.
However, if other users on the same Friendica node as you are following more users from the same remote instance, their public posts will also appear in the global community timeline but it isn’t related to who you are following.

If I understand correctly, Mastodon and Friendica manage the relationship with the other instances differently.
While Mastodon adds all the messages from all the users in the added/followed instance, Friendica adds only the messages from the added/followed user.
This makes it more difficult for Friendica users to contact users from farther away. To discover new users in other instances I must either add many of the same instance or be very lucky that my neighbors on my instance also have many other contacts from that instance.
Another alternative is, to continue with 2 accounts: One in Friendica and another in Mastodon.
Even the Friendica search function shows very few results. Surely this also depends on the above problem, or am I wrong?
When I search from my Friendica account I get fewer results than when I search from Mastodon. At Friendica I have more contacts than on the other account.

Si entiendo bien, Mastodon y Friendica administran diferente la relacion con las otras instancias.
Mientras Mastodon añade todos los mensajes de todos los usuarios de la instancia agregada, Friendica añade unicamente los mensajes del usuario agregado.
Esto hace mas dificil a los usuarios de Friendica poder contactar con usuarios mas lejanos. Para descubrir nuevos usuarios en otras instancias o debo agregar a muchos de la misma instancia o tener mucha suerte de que mis vecinos de mi instancia tambien tengan otros muchos contactos de esa instancia.
Otra alternativa es, seguir con 2 cuentas: Una en friendica y otra en Mastodon.
Incluso la funcion de busqueda de Friendica muestra muy pocos resultados. De seguro esto tambien depende del problema anterior ¿o me equivoco?
Cuando realizo una busqueda desde mi cuenta en Friendica recibo menos resultados que cuando hago la misma consulta desde Mastodon. En Friendica tengo mas contactos que en la otra cuenta.

What Mastodon instance are you registered on if it isn't indiscrete?

I'm sorry, but I can't tell you. I hope you understand.
What I can say is, on this account I follow 1500 and on the mastodon account I follow 800.

Entonces no entiendo nada.
Disculpa, pero no puedo decirtelo. Espero lo entiendas.
Lo que si puedo decir es, que en esta cuenta tengo 600/1500 y en la de mastodon tengo 600/800.

Bottom line is that both on Mastodon and Friendica the content of the global community timeline is the sum of the public posts from all your follows and the follows of every other users on the same instance. If you add a new follow, it will just add their next public posts to the global community timeline, nothing more, nothing less.
Search on Friendica is notoriously bad, but the fewer results may be because your Mastodon server has more users and content than your Friendica server, which is more likely than not.
