Any post in a lemmy.world community I view from another instance (e.g. programming.dev) shows different content than when viewing from lemmy.world directly. Many comments are missing. There seems to be a massive lag, sometimes more than 1 day. Are instances really that far out of sync? It’s hard to contribute from another instance knowing that nobody will see my comments for ~days
As someone running their own instance, since the update, new posts on lemmy.world have been federating comments fine from what I can tell. However posts from before the update were really hit and miss (mostly miss tbh) and I don’t think they’ll automatically be fixed.
I think the high weekend load and mass migration is load testing it to new heights.
Yeah, syncing up federated instances is an area that could use improvement, so it seems

Lemmy.world has been having some issues with slow federation the last week+. I think it’s just some growing pains, for now.
Usually comments will be a bit behind compared to the original instance. The big ones are busy processing and federating everything. Should be a bit better when everything settles in.
