I subscribed to a few smaller communities. When I visit them in an app or via slrpnk.net they show different posts/comments. In most cases its comments that seem to be missing.

I only noticed it in smaller communities, maybe because its more noticable there. Is this intentional/normal or a bug?

Examples:

https://slrpnk.net/c/polyamory@feddit.de and https://feddit.de/c/polyamory (no comments when accessed via slrpnk.net)

https://slrpnk.net/c/tranarchism@lemmy.blahaj.zone and https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/tranarchism (only my comment when accessed via slrpnk.net, which is missing when accessed via lemmy.blahaj.zone)

https://slrpnk.net/c/aufmuepfig@feddit.de?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New and https://feddit.de/c/aufmuepfig?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New (posts newer than 3 days are missing)

    Thank you for checking! I think those comments are mostly (Those that I checked were atleast) from instances we are federated with. But this seems to be something I was able to reproduce on other instances, like https://lemm.ee/c/polyamory@feddit.de and https://lemmy.world/c/polyamory@feddit.de also have no comments.

    If you notice a comment missing you can try to manually pull it by copying the full URL of the post (linked in that colorful Fediverse icon) and pasting it in the search bar here. That will usually make it available for everyone and you can reply.

    This does not seem to work for me, I did it a few hours ago on a few of those posts and nothing changed.

    Seems to be general federation weirdness to me

      Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !polyamory@feddit.de
