I have an account on kbin. Recently I saw a post across my feed in which a magazine that I follow (that’s based on a Lemmy instance) was celebrating over 1k subscribers. When I visited, I saw only 240 or so.
I decided to check it out from a Lemmy account and saw well over 1k. I also saw massive amounts of content that was not being pushed to my kbin account. Even when looking at specific users, I could see only the occasional post they made was visible to me on kbin while on Lemmy I could see massive amounts of content that they had posted to this magazine.
It bummed me out because one of the things they shared is extremely niche and I’ve never seen anyone else out in the wild interested in that topic and I would have loved to engage… But it never made it to my kbin feed.
Is this an issue with kbin vs Lemmy? Is there hope it will be fixed? I feel bad because I don’t want to use Lemmy and have loved kbin but am certainly jarred that I’ve been missing out on 80% of the content from a magazine I’ve been invested in engaging with.
TIA
As far as I know, Subscriber count is specific to your instance and not aggregated.
This is what’s happening here.
Respectfully, that doesn’t have anything to do with what is happening here.
Why is it that when I go to a Lemmy community from kbin I see three posts by user123 in the last 24 hours, but when I go from Lemmy I see user123 has made 12 posts in the last 24 hours?
Something is not working as intended.
Those are two separate issues. I use a private instance so all my communities only show two subscribers even though I can see all of the posts and comments.
