I’m experimenting with hosting my own instance. It seems like things are working, e.g. the steps in the troubleshooting doc work, http routing seems correct, etc. I can subscribe to other instance’s communities and see the posts. However, comments are not syncing at all not even new ones. I suspected it might be a lemmy.ml problem, but I also get this behavior from other instances as well. I am running 0.17.3. How do I debug this, or is it the expected behavior (new to Lemmy, of course).
I’m also experiencing something like this. Some comments are syncing, after a little while, but not very many. Some insight into how commenting syncing works and maybe how we can configure an instance to be better at it would be nice. Viewing this same post on lemmy.ml, I can see there have been several comments, but viewing the post while logged in to my own instance there are currently none visible.
I am pretty sure it’s not an issue of language settings, in my case, since the posts that comments have synced for show comments tagged with English and also comments with no language tag.
It’s likely your language settings. Make sure the instance (and you as a user) have undetermined listed in your available languages
(This post set to English)
It’s likely your language settings. Make sure the instance (and you as a user) have undetermined listed in your available languages > This post set to English
(This post was set to Undetermined, and you likely won’t see it)
I guess it’s obvious, but I can successfully post from my test instance to federated topics as well, so I’m not sure what isn’t working.
Since I can’t reply to anyone and am having to refresh other instances to see them: Languages were originally set to English and Unspecified for site and my user, I tried selecting them all and nothing changed. I can’t see any of your replies locally, so I’ll have to reply on the main thread :/
