this thread currently has 65 comments here on lemmy.ml but the federated version of it on lemmygrad has only 46.
is this a temporary problem, and/or is something wedged?
Its because lemmygrad has likely banned some of the pro-NATO users on this instance, so their comments won’t get federated.
I don’t think that fully explains it; my own comments in that thread here are missing there, and I don’t think I’m banned from lemmygrad because other things I’ve posted are still appearing there - including this very thread we’re in, the copy of which on lemmygrad has zero comments.
Also some of my other recent posts are missing there, despite the communities I’m posting to here being federated there. Also my recent display name change is not reflected there - although I’m pretty sure I did that before I made this post which is there (albeit without any of the comments). My previous display name change did carry over, however.
Changes to the user profile take up to 24 hours to be federated.
i’m seeing this on my instance as well. as of right now, for this post:
https://lemmy.ml/post/179265 - 5 comments
https://lemmy.ca/post/81014 - 2 commentsnot sure if it’s related or not, but just going through my logs, i’m seeing a few warnings similar to this:

The post @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml made to !theonion@midwest.social doesn’t show up to users on midwest.social, but shows up fine on lemmy.ml.
interesting. i seem to have just now caused that post to finally appear on https://midwest.social/c/theonion (here) by searching for the lemmy URL https://lemmy.ml/post/179689 with midwest.social’s search. (I looked, and it definitely wasn’t there a moment before I searched for it. So I guess searching for a lemmy URL made it fetch it somehow?!)
i’m pretty sure searching for it does force it to be “fetched”. you can do the same with comments. but i don’t know why they’re not being federated automatically.
i made a few more missing posts appear on other instances by searching for them there, but searching for comment links (to missing comments) hasn’t worked for me yet.
to search for comments you need to get the comment url, and remove the
/post/#####part, so it’s basically justhttps://[lemmy instance]/comment/#####, and search for that.thanks, that worked, i made a missing comment appear elsewhere.
oddly the
lemmy.ml/comment/xxxURLs are 404 when fetched in my browser, but it did cause the comment to get federated when i searched for a url like that on another instance just now. 🤷
I notice this with my instance as well.
Sadly it’s the same for kind of any decentralized social network. This problem is present on mastodon too, idk if there is a way to circumvent this
Here is the issue for this. I am currently waiting for the next release which will add some extra logging, and allow me to investigate this.

Lemmygrad is blocked by some instances. That could be why
