Federation: comments not syncing (satl.ink)

14 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I'm experimenting with hosting my own instance. It seems like things are working, e.g. the steps in the troubleshooting doc work, http routing seems correct, etc. I can subscribe to other instance's communities and see the posts. However, comments are not syncing at all not even new ones. I suspected it might be a lemmy.ml problem, but I also get this behavior from other instances as well. I am running 0.17.3. How do I debug this, or is it the expected behavior (new to Lemmy, of course).

I'm also experiencing something like this. Some comments are syncing, after a little while, but not very many. Some insight into how commenting syncing works and maybe how we can configure an instance to be better at it would be nice. Viewing this same post on lemmy.ml, I can see there have been several comments, but viewing the post while logged in to my own instance there are currently none visible.

I am pretty sure it's not an issue of language settings, in my case, since the posts that comments have synced for show comments tagged with English and also comments with no language tag.
