This is actually a really bad problem because I thought that certain communities I am a member of are quite active but coming in from aussie.zone, they look completely dead. It was making me start to switch off from Lemmy.
I’ve noticed they’re now only coming through over a week later. Upvotes are the same story - I made a post on a Lemmy.world community and it didn’t show as having any upvotes or comments until today
Interestingly, I’ve noticed that in some cases a single thread will have some comments which do show up, and others which don’t, from LW users. In this thread you can see some comments from LW users which I saw and even replied to on the same day, alongside one that didn’t show up for 8 days.
It’s actually gotten to the point where it’s not uncommon for me to specifically navigate to a post on LW just to see if there are comments I’m missing. And if I want to reply, I go in and search for that comment’s URL in the aussie.zone search, which forces it to federate faster.
I haven’t noticed any issues, but lemmy.world used to have lots of downtime right after the ban of third party apps on Reddit when I switched because too many users went there, they are probably still a bit overloaded.
