Do votes and comments not always federate with other instances? When I view the same post in different instances i.e. this instance and lemmy.world, they number of votes and comments are different. Is this because of some instances we are blocking?
Example:
Comments, especially on lemmy.world and lemmy.ml, frequently do not make it over to blahaj unless you take the url of the comment and put it into the search box to force the server to see it. I posted about this elsewhere
Folks have suggested that future updates may help alleviate the problem; fingers crossed. 🫰I know that blahaj is holding off on the current lemmy update until captchas are re-added.
Lemmy.world is growing too fast
and they haven’t updated Lemmy yet (waiting for captchas to be reimplemented).
They are the fastest growing instance.

It never seemed to be happening to the extent it does here, when I was mainly using shitjustworks. So, it may be that there are some configuration things that could be done to address it?
Some of those interactions will simply need time to propagate. However, there’s a number of things going on here. Aside from the fact that the federation process itself probably needs some tuning/optimization for the current number of users, before 0.18 one of the goto workarounds for hot/active being broken were regular restarts. Everytime they restarted anything in the outbound queue was lost. I believe they would still show locally though. All that said I think this is primarily a case of slow propogation. Particularly because of the migration wave.
Anecdotally, my timeline looks a lot more lively after the update (however, looks like there’s still a pretty big gap)
