Am I not understanding how things are supposed to work, or are things just being weird? I made this post yesterday: https://lemmy.ml/post/1596015
It’s about the 4th post down when sorted by New.
- On lemmy.world it doesn’t show at all.
- On beehaw.org it shows with 1 comment made by another user.
- On lemmy.ml it shows with that 1 comment plus a second comment I made today.
Is it normal for there to be these differences in the same community when viewed from different instances?
You must log in or # to comment.
Normal, no, but I’ve been seeing lots of reports of sync issues with both Lemmy.ml and Lemmy.world. I think both are a bit overloaded and Lemmy.world is still running an older instance of the software too - for now. There definitely seem to be bugs.
It’s a known bug that is being worked on
Lemmy to Lemmy federation of comments and postings is having widespread problems, especially the big 3 servers you mentioned.
There is an open issue on GitHub: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3101
I’ve also programmed a tool to compare two servers and compile an automatic list of comments that are missing, here are examples from recent days: https://lemmy.ml/post/1582415
Oh I see, thank you for the information!
