Is anybody else running into this problem?

My federated posts are appearing in my timeline quite well, however I’ve noticed that significant portions of the comment section are not being carried over.

For example, I’ll see a post on my instance with 13 comments. I’ll click on the fediverse icon to take me to the original source and that has 43 comments. Where did those 30 comments go?

The worst part is, I can’t seem to figure out a way to “force sync” or refresh the page to make sure all the comments are carried over. Because of this, I feel like I’m only getting part of the conversation and I’m unable to reply to comments that don’t appear on my instance.

Does anybody have any solutions to this problem? It’s literally my one huge issue I have with my own instance.

    Its likely not a fault on your end, but overloaded servers on the other side failing to push updates or pushing them more that 10 seconds delayed after which your instance will discard them.

    The latter part could be improved in the codebase I guess, but overloaded severs are just a reality right now, especially lemmy.ml
