Comments Not Consistent Across Instances? (sh.itjust.works)

Hello I'm new to Lemmy and I'm trying to decide which instance to use. I've largely read that it doesn't really matter.

As a test use case I found a random post on the pathofexile lemmy that I wanted to interact with which is found here: https://pathofexile-discuss.com/post/62

I then tried subscribing and loading that post in several different instances and found that most of them don't load the comments, or only load some. Why is this happening?

Instance	Number of Comments	Notes
https://sh.itjust.works/post/75968	4/12	Originally only my comment I left only showed up, after 24 hours 3 other comments have showed up.

I'm also curious to see someone else with the full picture but I have one partial answer

The ones with 0 just aren't on pathofexile-discuss.com's allowed list: https://pathofexile-discuss.com/instances

No idea why the others are out of sync. Maybe the pathofexile instance added the other instances to the allowed list at different times?

Aha that's a helpful response. I'll forward this information along to the admin thank you.
