Who can tell me how federation works between peertube servers? (feddit.de)

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?

but this looks like peertube servers "follow" each other?

I don't get it. I fully understand how it works with mastodon, and even lemmy.
