issues syncing with other instances (lemmy.ml)

Hello !

As federated, I'm subscribed to communities from other instances than lemmy.ml, for example !xmpp@slrpnk.net, !monero@monero.town, !programming@programming.dev, !technology@lemmygrad.ml, and several other ones...

The common thing is that the federated communities are often pretty out of sync with regards to the original ones on their corresponding instances, and that in the best cases, some times I don't think they've even been syncing for quite a while.

I'm wondering if it's a limitation given lemmy.ml can't keep up, given its amount of users and federation, or if it's something that can be looked at...

Thanks !

You can enable multiple languages with ctrl + click. And user blocks might be another reason for missing posts.

Ohh, good to know about multi language. I guess that would restrict what I read to only the languages I select (be more restrictive), whereas "undetermined" should allow me to see everything, or so I understood. BTW, I'm not blocking anything, since I haven't found the need to do so, with that, I'd guess the more one blocks, the more restrictive one becomes, but that's not my case. That's why a was a bit surprised that my settings could be the cause for me to see less up to date stuff, :( In my mind, my settings are the least restrictive possible.

To see everything you need to select all languages (click at top of the list, then shift + click at the bottom). I believe if you select only undetermined you wont see posts with a language specified, but not totally sure.

wow, I had no clue ! That might have been it. It's weird, but they actually get something eventually, but very dated... I hope this works, I have already selected a couple of languages besides undetermined, which seems to be a must as well.

Thanks a lot !
