Because it doesn’t seem to work as I expected.

I thought if a peertube server follows another peertube server that all the videos that the second server uploads to any channel are automatically pushed into the timeline of the first server. That doesn’t seem to be the case though, I have seen multiple servers that follow each other but the videos posted on one are nowhere to be found on the other.

Why have this servers following servers thing then? Is it just a whitelist? But if it was a whitelist I shouldn’t be able to follow any accounts on other servers from an obscure pt account, which doesn’t seem to be the case also.

Soooooo, any ideas? Just bugs?

        The research found that Black taxpayers were three to five times more likely than taxpayers who are not Black to be audited. It noted that the I.R.S. disproportionately flagged tax returns with potential errors in the claiming of certain credits, like the earned-income tax credit, which supplements low-income workers’ incomes in an effort to alleviate poverty.

        It sounds like it could be a side effect of disproportionately auditing lower-icome people, mixed with income inequality affecting black taxpayers.

          If you read the paper from the Stanford researchers, it mostly has to do with earned income tax credits (EITC). A black male single parent who files with EITC was something like 20x more likely to be audited than any other group.
