I just set up my instance and noticed that posts on my Instance dont have the same upvote and comment counts? What couses this and how can I solve it?
Example:
https://lemmy.ohaa.xyz/post/151 - 26 Upvotes and 12 Comments
https://lemmy.ml/post/3331957 - 611 Upvotes and 54 Comments
Basically your instance will start logging the numbers from the first person on your instance interacts with community AND will only log local subscriptions and votes. Obviously a bigger instance is likely to have someone connect before you more than a smaller one. It’s funny because I will create a post from my instance and think it flopped, only to check it from another instance and it did numbers.
