I can see many articles from other instances that end up in m/random instead of the actual magazine they were posted in. Why is this so? It’s pretty annoying to be unable to view, subscribe to, or block those magazines.

    Just realised your hypothesis doesn’t work, as many of the posts I see ending up in m/random have 0 comments, thus there is no way they could have been referred to by a comment/reply before they were federated.

      For Sure. It might not be comments, but some other way the thread shows up without the magazine information. I have seen the same thing you describe but I haven’t been able to capture data on it. I have a few ideas on how to test different scenarios but I need to figure out how to capture the raw data as well to verify.
