    I just joined Lemmy like yesterday due to trying to move away from reddit.

    Today, I’ve been experimenting around with the fediverse trying to figure out the UI and all. But this weird hack thing that is happening on at least lemmy.world makes it all a bit confusing 🤔

    For example, when I am signed in and check my feed in “new” I only see posts from 2 days ago, even though it seems like new content is still being posted.

    Similarly this Cafe post from today has 0 comments even though yesterdays had like 50. Are there just not many people on Lemmy, or is this some weird issue I’m having?

      I find that between yesterday and today, a sign out and signing back in solved most of the glitches I’m seeing (subscriptions not populated or appearing, post updates, latest posts, etc). I forsee doing this periodically for the forseable future of using Lemmy, regardless of home instance.

      It’s just slow day and we don’t really have many people here haha

        from another instance you don’t see anything new from the 10 July. this thread doesn’t exist. and of 10th july, the number of comments are not the same on that day, 69 local vs 72 in the instance i am in, which means that there are comments that exist elsewhere that failed to federate here.

        I default to that instance, so i would bring up cafe@monyet.cc and blink stupidly for a few seconds (no update??) before remembering to open monyet.cc directly.
