Is anybody else running into this problem?
My federated posts are appearing in my timeline quite well, however I've noticed that significant portions of the comment section are not being carried over.
For example, I'll see a post on my instance with 13 comments. I'll click on the fediverse icon to take me to the original source and that has 43 comments. Where did those 30 comments go?
The worst part is, I can't seem to figure out a way to "force sync" or refresh the page to make sure all the comments are carried over. Because of this, I feel like I'm only getting part of the conversation and I'm unable to reply to comments that don't appear on my instance.
Does anybody have any solutions to this problem? It's literally my one huge issue I have with my own instance.
You can force sync a single comment by going to the original instance and getting the /comment/#### link, and searching it in your own instance. It could be possible to automate this via the resolveObject API call, but a lot of people doing it en masse wouldn't be good for the big indtances.
It boils down to either your instance not using with workers to handle activityhub updates, or the big places being overloaded and experiencing the same thing. If they don't get to successfully send you an update, or you fail to receive it in time, you miss out on that content.
