There’s a bunch of lemmy content now coming from the migration out of reddit land, but I’ve just tried to follow one of them (@gaming) and it works … except I’m getting *every single comment* (ie. posts and replies) from that instance in my timeline, not just the top level posts. Anyone know whether that’s intended, or whether there’s a fix?

    It depends on what you mean by intended

    The way lemmy groups push content to members of the groups is by boosting all posts and replies made to the group. Lemmy is designed to recognise boosts by lemmy groups, and displays them appropriately, but to an app that isn’t designed with groups in mind, all they see is a bunch of boosted content.
