Comments are different between instances for the same community? Is this supposed to happen? in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
[–] Moderator@lemmy.reckless.dev 2 points 1 year ago

I think it’s either a bug or related to server load. I made a post on this community noting the same thing. It’s like instances are not communicating with each other right now.

I looked at the same post from 4 different instances and got four different results in both comment count and votes.

From the server it was originally posted on (currently at 9 comments): https://lemmy.ml/post/1244889

lemmy.world (8 comments): https://lemmy.world/post/112477

I just made a similar post of my own on this community. I’m seeing the exact same thing. It’s like instances are not speaking with one another properly right now.

Discrepancies between instances in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

I posted this same post on r/redditalternatives and got a similar response, that lemmy.ml is going through it right now and causing sync issues.

Just makes me paranoid that whichever instance I browse Lemmy from, I’ll be missing some content.

Discrepancies between instances (lemmy.reckless.dev)
 

Take a look at this same post, from four different instances:

From the server it was originally posted on (currently at 9 comments): https://lemmy.ml/post/1244889

lemmy.world (8 comments): https://lemmy.world/post/112477

This just doesn’t make sense to me. I thought the entire point of all of this was that you get the same content regardless of which instance you’re on. But clearly, I’m seeing wildly different results. Why?

Why can I not find certain communities from my instance? (lemmy.reckless.dev)
 

I used a site to find a Lemmy instance closest to me, and created an account. I’ve noticed however, I cannot access certain communities which are hosted on other instances. Example:

My server of choice is lemmy.reckless.dev. I want to subscribe to either apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world or apple@lemmy.ml. However, I get a 404 error when trying to access this from my instance (https://lemmy.reckless.dev/c/apple@lemmy.ml). I also get no results if I go to lemmy.reckless.dev > Communities > All and enter “Apple”.

What am I doing wrong? Is the instance I chose just not working correctly?

Medical marijuana could be back in North Carolina House in coming weeks in c/politics@beehaw.org

I doubt my backwards ass state will allow this but I’m nonetheless glad to read this headline!
