Take this post, for instance:

https://fedia.io/m/lemmyworld@lemmy.world/t/6403/Does-lemmy-world-allow-criticism-of-the-CCP

The user and magazine are both from Lemmy.world, but next to the title it says (fedia.io). What does that site in the parentheses mean?

    Not sure how well federating is working at this time. For instance, if you search here (Fedia) for “RedditMigration” T. Chambers magazine on kbin.social. It finds it, but if you click on it, it is empty. You can then go to the “original” kbin.social profile, but you are not logged in. It seems that the local version is not federating well. Any ideas or thoughts? Is this just early days growing problems?

      I understand that federation with kbin.social specifically is not working correctly but I’m seeing similar things with other instances also from here. Lemmy.ca as one example. Way more posts there than what shows up here in the magazines I’m subscribed to.

        Between lemmy.world and fedia.io, magazines I’m viewing are at least 1 day behind the source. I figured it was due to the increase in new posts and the creation of additional lemmy instances that all have to sync.

          Same here. I’ve also noticed some major lag between posting comments and them actually appearing; a couple of times they’ve simply never appeared. I assume this all has to do with server load and growing pains, so I’m not too worried about it, but there do seem to be a few sync issues.

            I hope that the additional servers are enough to solve these issues soon. Otherwise it would be a real shame for such a promising attempt of a federated Reddit.
