Any reason that slrpnk.net is not on Lemmy Federate?

Here we can discuss anything about this Lemmy instance/server itself.

Yes more or less.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Perhaps it should be more obviously noted somewhere how the "All" feed is populated. For someone who thinks that what they see there is quite literally ALL of Lemmy, other communities may as well not exist. Of course, that is not a SLRPNK issue but part of how Lemmy works.
I think it is a mistake to think of Lemmy as "Lemmy" in singular. Lemmy is just one of the software options that can be used to run independent websites that can optionally interact with each other via the ActvityPub protocol. The "All" feed is quite literally all that people on the same website have subscribed to, which is not a bad thing at all if you chose an instance with like minded people. Just think of it as crowdsourcing the discovery of interesting communities.
...And I just saw another instance providing a basic explanation in the sidebar. baraza.africa has a "What is where?" section. Something like that on slrpnk.net that includes this explanation or links to your comment here would probably help the newbs.
