For example, I’m on Lemmy.sdf.org and I joined the Apple@lemmy.ml community. But there are many missing articles and comments. If I browse directly on Lemmy.ml for the same article there ~90% of comments are missing.
https://lemmy.ml/post/1152794 has 26 comments https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/11232 has 0 comments
The person you are replying to deleted the comment. That said, as I understand it, comments are federated once someone on a server subscribes. So, not all comments will be federated. However, stuff listed in the comments here would seem to break my understanding of how federation works. I’m very curious to hear the answers.
What’s funny is that comment isn’t deleted for me (on https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml/t/9220/Why-are-communities-on-Lemmy-ml-more-full-compared-to-the#entry-comment-43401)
Very interesting.
