    There are other issues with comments not syncing across instances that I am seeing with my community. Comments and posts from Lemmy.ml cant be seen by lemmy.world. It didn’t used to be like this prior to the reddit blackout. I think the amount of traffic and the various issues with BE 0.17.4 are likely to blame. I think some Lemmy instances are even still on version 0.17.3 because I believe 0.17.4 has bugged Hot and Active scores, among other issues.

    The Lemmy devs just posted a big blog post where they said they are working on the next version (rumored to be 0.18) which is going to bring some substantial changes to the codebase.

    Tldr: “At the moment we are urgently working to solve major issues, such as optimizing slow database queries, ripping out the inefficient websocket API, and fixing a major security vulnerability”

    So I’m going to chalk up all these issues under known bugs that will be fixed in the next update or worked out over time.
