Data being lost?
Data being lost?
It seems lemm.ee is missing data that is available in other instances like lemmy.world. Even posts and comments made on lemm.ee itself.
For example, compare the profiles of @[email protected] on both sites. You'll notice that on lemmy.world there are more comments more recently.
https://lemmy.world/u/[email protected]
Edit: as soon as I posted this the data seems to have synced back up again.
I too have noticed this over the last few days...not sure if the data sync is just slow or or if it just never makes it. Haven't tested it out yet.
I'm having this same issue with comments not coming through to lemm.ee. Compare https://lemm.ee/post/544163 with https://beehaw.org/post/902307
On lemm.ee the post has only 2 comments, while on beehaw it has 10. The reply to my comment is visible on beehaw but not lemm.ee and I didn't get any notifications about it.
The comments are 5 days old so it doesn't seem likely to be a slow sync issue. Sorry I don't have any technical knowhow to fix this issue but hopefully these example links help.
Hey, there were some issues with federation before 0.18.1, but I am seeing a great improvement now that servers are gradually upgrading. You can always force a sync for older posts and comments by searching directly for the original url of that post or comment on lemm.ee.
Thanks for the reply! Good to know the new version should be solving it and that trick to force a sync. Thanks for running this great instance!
Here's a similar situation that still isn't fully resolved.

I replied initially with a reply from my Mastodon account.... After a day or so it never appeared so I posted again. The person I'm replying to said he sees both posts (on vlemmy) while I still only see the post I made directly to lemm.ee and not the one from my mastodon account at opencoaster.net
Just realized the OP was older.... Just wanted to tag you, @[email protected] to make sure you saw these other comments. No rush, just don't want it to get buried :)
Hey! I believe there must have been some connection issue when that comment was being sent out. I have searched for the comment URL (https://opencoaster.net/@RagingWolfBob/110645118273581059) in our lemm.ee search page, and that triggered a sync, so it's visible now.
In general 0.18.1 has improved federation reliability a lot, so issues like this will hopefully become less common as time goes by.
