I can't stand /r/piracy anymore. it has devolved into… what's a torrent? is this site ok? what country doesn't care about piracy? its clear a lot of the older pirates have left. but I can't find them. not sire how big this community is but the news post I see is 4 days old…
ok something is going on, as I can see you're comments but can't see them. how can I tell if my instance is federated with you. currently I have 3 comments and I can only see one when checking the post. this happened quite a lot with other posts I see a big number of comments then when checking I see just a few actual comments
Well, the original post is less than 30 minutes old, you've had a few comments and votes. You've also been on Lemmy for at least 2 months, so you should already be aware that federation between countless servers can take a few minutes. Just chill, you're cool 😎
To me what's seen on the screenshot means that the comments have been kind-of synchronized but actually not, and it has bugged away or the comments somehow got filtered out.
@matcherock Can you sort by new in the community's main page, maybe? This is what I see:

You should be able to see everything on here if we go by the instances list on your site.
Could it be that the number of comments that you can actually see doesn't match the counter because some were deleted?
What are your language settings set to in your Lemmy profile? I know if you deselect
Undetermined, it will cause this.That also being said, most of the comments here are tagged as English, and the comment in your screenshot doesn't seem like it was tagged as such - weird question, but do you by chance have English deselected?
When I view this post from the feddit.uk instance, I can see all the comments so I don't think it's a sync issue, unless they're all appearing for you now.
How do you even select or deselect languages, the language selector in the settings doesn't seem to work.
I find that comment visibility improves when you visit the post from a different community
If this is an issue you experience with pirate subs mostly, you might wanna consider making an account on the dbzer0 instance.
