If I visit a community from Feddit and then another instance, the comments often differ. I understand there are some issues with defederation between some instances, but this doesn’t seem related to that.

For example, here’s the post-race discussion on the Formula 1 community on Feddit: https://feddit.uk/post/320484

And then the same discussion on lemmy.world: https://lemmy.world/post/950479

I don’t understand why a significant number of comments aren’t visible on Feddit.

    I should add that I thought being on a smaller instance like Feddit would avoid some of the defederation problems compared to being on lemmy.world or beehaw, so it’s weird to me that there are fewer comments on Feddit than on lemmy.world.

    Looking closer at the comments on the F1 post, it seems that the missing comments are from lemmy.world users. Has Feddit defedrated from lemmy.world? Did I miss that?
