Kbin and Lemmy federation: why I don't see all the comments? (self.asklemmy)

4 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hi, I am still trying to understand the Federation word. I am an user on lemmy.world and I follow a community (or magazine) on kbin.social. I was reading a post on kbin.social and I noticed that I see only comments from users on lemmy.world.

Why this happens? I saw that lemmy.world is linked to kbin.social (looking at its instances), so why?

Thank you!

Well from my own experience so far, lemmy.world is one of the better ones

I have a goji account on 5 different servers, just until I figure out what works best for me. Looking at a post with 48 comments on its home instance, from the other instances I see comment counts ranging from 0 to 39. So there are clearly a lot of wrinkles yet to iron out.

So it seems it’s not a kbin issue, but a federation issue in general right now.

I feel like the devs are focusing on more pressing issues at the moment, like security, stability, scaling, accessibility and mobile apps… I’m sure they’ll figure out what’s going wrong with syncing, but it may be a minute.
