Hello.
I have a post I made to a group on lemmy.world that doesn’t seem to be federating.
The group is [email protected]. The post can be found here https://lemmy.nz/post/322993 and the same one here https://lemmy.world/post/108808?scrollToComments=true
Ah dam. So basically, we are missing all content from before a user subscribes to a community on a different instance?
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 think it syncs a few recent posts, but not the comments when you first subscribe.
But I think there are other ways to get older posts synced?
Hopefully how this works becomes a bit more transparent and is improved over time. It’s a bit confusing right now.
Yeah it’s not very clear what’s happening, and when people try to explain it I don’t think it lines up with what we see. These things will get easier over time as new features are added.
