Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

What is the reason for drastically different vote count and number of comments across different instances? Is the issue solved as of today? (lemmy.zip)

Title. I have seen this issue in the past, but I just stumbled across a post where the difference is massive (as of today, 14 January 2024):

316 upvotes and 173 comments on lemmy.sh.itjust.works

https://sh.itjust.works/post/6400367

vs

-13 upvotes and 7 comments on lemmy.zip

https://lemmy.zip/post/3556131

for no apparent reason (i.e. lemmy.zip doesn't seem to be blocking the instances the missing comments are coming from and those instances aren't blocking lemmy.zip either). What's going on here?

Is the issue solved as of today?

P.S. Here's how the post appears on other instances

A locked thread from 3 months ago that has been crossposted in to half a dozen groups isn't the best example of how replies and comments federate across the fediverse.
