One of the things that really annoys me about my single user instance, is that I'm often missing replies to posts from other servers.

Over the weekend, I saw @abnv 's post where he introduced a python script to pull in these replies.

I've made that into a GitHub Action, and added the functionality to pull through even more replies (and added loads of exception handing):

Been running it for a day, and I'm now getting almost all replies to everything that's in my home timeline, which is a game changer.

@michael
Is this only a mastodon issue? What about other projects?

@anchal @abnv I’m not very familiar with other projects, but afaik several of them also suffer of this to varying degrees
