Why am I not seeing the correct comments and vote tallies for certain communities from other instances? (sh.itjust.works)

I hope it's alright to ask a question here, because I'm very curious about an important facet of this instance:

I noticed this morning that when I visit some of the communities hosted on other instances, I'm seeing an incorrect vote count, and few to no comments. Is this due to the recent breach, and does it relate to defederating from other instances temporarily?

Example: https://lemmy.zip/c/gaming 85 total comments https://sh.itjust.works/c/gaming@lemmy.zip 12 total comments

It's neither instance's or the recent event's fault. It's been that way for a while now and is just a Lemmy problem that is being worked on. It has improved since the last month though so you're probably seeing the older posts that didn't replicate at the time. It was basically giving up too quickly when looking for posts from other instances which caused a lot of mismatch between what local communities showed and what it looked like on federated instances.

Thank you so much for explaining! I've seen this happen a lot with one of the new communities I follow that has a dozen or so posts that were just created last week.

I'm mostly just seeing this with sh.itjust.works right now... but I haven't tried out very many instances yet, so it could very well be equally happening everywhere. Here's to hoping this improves as Lemmy, and the Fediverse grows!

On a more positive note, the apps in the Play Store are getting better every single day. It's really neat to see things get worked on so expeditiously, and by so many talented folks!

I've been seeing this too from my accounts on other instances.
