What's up with "The magazine from the federated server may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance."? Is this working as intended or is it a bug? (kbin.social)

I've been seeing this for quite a bit, and thought it'd resolve itself once CloudFlare was taken off, but I'm still seeing it on many external communities from e.g. Lemmy. Not all posts or comments are visible from Kbin. Any idea on what's going on?

Edit, clarification: when I visit e.g., https://kbin.social/m/technology@beehaw.org the above mentioned sentence shows up, and I'm not able to see threads created even 13 hrs ago, like this one on the original instance https://beehaw.org/post/927935?scrollToComments=true. New content doesn't seem to be pushed to this instance at kbin.social. This is the issue I'm referring to.

Edit 2: This is probably the answer: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/131241/What-s-up-with-The-magazine-from-the-federated-server-may#entry-comment-517045

I've heard this as well, but this is regarding new posts and comments not showing up. Not the old ones. And when they do show up after some unknown time, it might still be incomplete.

No, once somebody (anybody) from your instance has subscribed, all posts from the community from that point on 'should' mirror. The warning is in relation to older posts.
That said several of the Lemmy servers have been struggling with load over the last week or two (and kbin.social has occasional downtime too). Occasionally some posts might not push out to all other instances properly.
