Is there any way to force a full sync of community or even a single post?

Not that I'm aware of. Hopefully we get these tools with time. But as I understand it federation is basically a push action, the community host instance sends the updates out to all the instances with users subscribed. The instances don't send a request asking for updates as far as I know.
Ah dam. So basically, we are missing all content from before a user subscribes to a community on a different instance?
Something like that. I have heard basically that but if you go look at a new community that no one has subscribed to then it still shows you posts so there must be more to it.
I can see two comments from you on each post. Is that what you're referring to?
Also your account is marked as a bot account, did you want to check your user settings? There should be one setting to say it's a bot account and one to say you want to see posts from bot accounts.
I'm no longer a bot 🙂
When I check the post I've linked above it only has my two comments and a single reply in one thread.
Checking that same post directly on lemmy.world there are 29 comments across 8 threads.
Good to see all aphantasia community available
I have another account that has it's home instance as lemmy.world, none of my comments are posting. I think the instance is really struggling at the moment.
