Hello.

I have a post I made to a group on lemmy.world that doesn't seem to be federating.

The group is !aphantasia@lemmy.world. The post can be found here https://lemmy.nz/post/322993 and the same one here https://lemmy.world/post/108808?scrollToComments=true

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

[–] Dave 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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?

[–] Dave 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

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.
