    This has been my experience with every community so far.

    Even when I open the same post from 2 different instances nothing is the same and additionally, sometimes even the comments will load up for half a second and then everything disappears and it says 0 comments.

    Finally, this is the same even for entire communities. Same community, 24 subscribers in one instance, show 2 from the other.

    This has probably something to do with the fact that content is pulled only after users subscribe from another instance, etc. I’m not exactly sure how it works for now but it could even be a bug.

      Yup, this. I can’t find a link to explain it, but when you subscribe to a community that your server hasn’t seen before, only the latest 20 posts/comments are pulled in.

        Yeah it’s something that needs fixing since even right now in this thread I might be having a conversation with you but someone else seems completely different comments and not ours, nor are we seeing theirs.

        It’s unintentional fragmentation further than the one already existing due to federalization.

        The ecosystem needs to be more consistent.

          It’s frustrating - but I think it’ll stabilize to some degree once we have more instances that have existed for more than a week or two.

    That’s weird. Can’t test it on mobile. What if you use another sorting option like ‘new’ or ‘top’?

    I see the same posts now, even if the order is not exactly the same. I guess it may be some kind of synchronization issue as the servers are overloaded today.

    I might be experiencing something similar. I saw different posts under “All” before and after logging in, even using the same sort (“New”). But in both cases I’m viewing from my home instance.

    Update: For example, I subscribe to !socialism@beehaw.org and saw multiple posts from my home instance before logging in, but now only one is showing up.
