Scenario (steps to reproduce)

  1. Log in to sync with an account with a home instance other than lemmy.world

  2. Note that the instance shows as a remote I stance in the sidebar.

  3. Attempt to upvote a post on the home instance.

  4. Receive a “Post not local” message.

  5. Clicking through the message to upvote, or even see comments, works but the upvote doesn’t seem to stick.

    Maybe try to login to that instance again? Maybe the problem is that Sync just isn’t handling the access denied correctly. Viewing Local is usually open to the public, at least in my experience.
