Discrepancy in comment and upvote count on different instances (dataterm.digital)

I noticed that when I view this post for example on lemmy.world: https://lemmy.world/post/291005 and on dataterm.digital: https://dataterm.digital/post/54221 that both of them are the same post but with a different number of votes and comments.

I believe this also leads to different sorting of the all feed in these instances. Why is that and can it be fixed? Is it even a bug?

I even saw while having both posts open that on lemmy.world a new comment got added in realtime but not on dataterm.digital

Seems to me that the votes only count for the instance you're viewing from. Same with community subscribers, you can have 50 subs on one instance and 0 on another (for the same comm).
