    Federation is pretty buggy and very often you just won’t see eg. votes or even comments from federated instances even when you should be seeing them

      Hell, sometimes even posts don’t federate. There was a period of a few days where Lemmy.World’s federation was messed up, and all my posts here from that period are some of the least-upvoted in this community. I figure those posts just never made it outside of Lemmy.World, or at least past anyone not directly browsing the community.

      Like, I thought this post was pretty good, but it only got a handful of votes, and only a few of the comments were from accounts outside Lemmy.World.

        Oh yeah definitely, I don’t know why I left posts out because the same problem affects everything that’s supposed to be federated
