Hi, so I launched my very own instance. I’m posting from here, and hopefully this post makes it there. I subscribed to a few coms, but I’m getting outdated posts and the votes don’t line up, also the comments do not all load. So I’m able to federate, but for some reason only some of the data is coming over to my server… Has anyone here been experiencing the same thing?

UI is 0.18.2 and BE is 0.18.1

I just wanna be able to browse other coms without having to constantly switch domain names and log in with another account just to participate.

edit: Here’s pics for comparison for a post on selfhosted.

    How long has it been? If you just spun it up, what you’ve seen is just the initial pull of the content. As you subscribe, all new content will get pushed to you, but the old content never backfills.

    Check your NGINX logs, you should see a bunch of POST requests to /inbox and status of 200 that looks like this:

    54.36.178.108 - - [13/Jul/2023:01:10:16 -0400] "POST /inbox HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "Lemmy/0.18.2; +https://lemmy.ml"
54.36.178.108 - - [13/Jul/2023:01:10:16 -0400] "POST /inbox HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "Lemmy/0.18.2; +https://lemmy.ml"

54.36.178.108 - - [13/Jul/2023:01:10:19 -0400] "POST /inbox HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "Lemmy/0.18.2; +https://lemmy.ml"
54.36.178.108 - - [13/Jul/2023:01:10:19 -0400] "POST /inbox HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "Lemmy/0.18.2; +https://lemmy.ml"

    Included a bunch, as you can see they should be coming in quite frequently, basically everytime someone does something on the remote instance.

    Make sure you’re subscribed to the community as well

    Basic curl testing seems to rule out common routing problems, so check the lemmy logs as well just in case.
