@jrossstocholm for public posts, your followers' servers' are a starting point. If they boost/quote you, it carries on to their followers' servers'. There are also various relay services that pull in public posts whether you're followed there or not. There are bots scanning local timelines to pull in or boost posts. Posting publicly means it goes to more than just your followers, but very much not /all/ servers.

@jaz@toot.wales Ok - that was also my impression. It get it that there can be a ripple-effect when followers boost or interact, but I still feel like it is a stretch to say that my posts are to be stored on up to 40,000 servers. You make it sound like every server in the #fediverse will have a replica of the entire fediverse. 😊
