Parts will be cached but it’s per instance. For a 100 user instance, what are the chances that a recent cache of All page 74 is available? Bots are crawling every page, and most pages are content from last month, last year, or 3 years ago.

I would expect Lemmy instances to have some limiters set for guest connections, especially for ones coming from datacenters. Like, it should be easy and senseful to only link and cache up to All page 10, or Hot page 5, and refuse guest loads of anything beyond that.
