It currently counts the boosts as upvotes instead of the upvote button itself, but the downvote button does count as downvotes which is why that is. I don't remember the exact cause of this at the moment but I'm sure it's only temporary.
I'm assuming the boosts are for activitypub compatibility with Mastodon?
Oh cool. Any thoughts why people posting from other instances shows up to us but those of us on kbin who comment, our posts don't show up on the original instance thread?
I noticed that too but I'm unsure of the technicalities.
At the moment I'm guessing that either comments just don't sync back or that what we see here is only a clone of this post from lemmyworld on here and we're commenting on the clone instead of the original post on their instance.
Those are only wild guesses though since I'm not too familiar with how kbin works but that would be why I personally think this could be.
Anyways the devs are/will be probably working on this too since some other threads have adressed problems with commenting to other instances and or replying to comments of this instance.
Yeah that would be my guess too. Seems an early stage for this technology but it's really neat, I look forward to it maturing and the devs are doing an amazing job already.
