Why do comments differ across instances? (feddit.uk)

If I visit a community from Feddit and then another instance, the comments often differ. I understand there are some issues with defederation between some instances, but this doesn't seem related to that.

For example, here's the post-race discussion on the Formula 1 community on Feddit: https://feddit.uk/post/320484

And then the same discussion on lemmy.world: https://lemmy.world/post/950479

I don't understand why a significant number of comments aren't visible on Feddit.

I see. I'll assume this is a problem related to the surge in users and will eventually resolve itself.

Lemmy.world has been struggling hard core the last couple days, sometimes not even loading. I think this is an issue with a free service that requires actual intense server hardware when you scale like this. Hopefully they can find a sustainable way to deal with their increased usage.
