I’m migrating from lemm.ee and just created an account here but for some reason I’m seeing only a handful to zero comments on sh.itjust.works posts even when they show hundreds of comments.

I’m vaguely familiar with similar federation issues where you might not see old comments if you’re the first person to subscribe to a community on a different instance, but I don’t understand why I can’t see comments on posts from what is now my native instance.

Can anyone clarify what’s going on?

      Yes, this very post of mine 😆

      I only have one blocked user and no blocked instances. I’m going to check the language settings like others mentioned.

        is that sync? sync has some issues with local communities. I think it might get better if you subscribe to the community.

        compare with the web version to rule out account related issues.

          Yeah it’s Sync and in my googling I discovered that it has been abandoned by the developer (unfortunate since I’ve been using it for around 2 years now). I installed Voyager and it is working fine now, though it will take some getting used to.
