Still waiting on Fish 1.1, it should have several new features but has been floundering in development hell...

Some nerd probably wanted to be able to say they literally decimated their management teams
Nuclear power isn't really a bad thing provided nobody cuts corners.
Oh, wait, it's Big Tech......
Israel is probably the contractor that does the dirty work for the others.
Vampire Survivors is $5, and I got like 90 hours out of it without buying any DLC.
OP has a very niche identity.
"for now" doing some extremely heavy lifting there
Oh hey, I never thought I'd see somebody who's the target audience for those AI generated social media sites in the wild :P
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe by default IRC is only logged if the client opts to log it. I don't remember being able to see message history when joining a channel back in the day, so I'm not sure if servers themselves keep logs by default.
It's reportedly been running for seven years, so I suppose I just assumed that they didn't want to pay to maintain the online service for all eternity.
The other reply's probably also got a good point in terms of actual staff doing support for it, too.
The article links to a previous article about the online service for the free to play version shutting down. It looks like the Complete edition is an offline version where all the content will be available through gameplay without microtransactions, where the events will rotate every 4 years. HTH
After the point in time where you made the connection, you will see activity start coming in from their connections. So you should gradually see their followers populate as those people make new posts, which get federated to your instance through your connection to them.
Especially if the connection you made is the first time the remote instance has been interacted with, it's going to look barren at first because there is basically no capability to sync history. You can think of it like an RSS feed.
(This is oversimplified - it's possible that ActivityPub might allow for historical items to be synced just like RSS publishers can choose to include older data. I would speculate that it's not commonly done for bandwidth reasons if it is possible.)
A downside to this is that if you're trying to read through historical posts (from before you made the connection) you will have to click through to the hosting instance to get a complete view.
An upside to this is that because you only see content posted after the connection is established, you are guaranteed to be seeing new posts from active users.
