Not seeing any comments from my new instance unless it is a reply to me. (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)

It seems to be a similar issue to this: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/106?scrollToComments=true

I see the docs say I need to search for every comment..??? https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/federation_getting_started.html

But that doesn't appear to be how it works on other posts.

I can see your reply :) but if it isn’t directed at me I can’t see it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why would you see a reply that wasn't directed at you? I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish. What did you expect to happen? And what happened instead?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can only see comments that are replies. No other comments on posts show up even though I know they’re there.

How are comments different from replies?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If you open a post and people replied to that post there are comments. They didn’t necessarily reply to you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

ohh. you will not get notifications for those. or I don't using Photon anyway. you only get notifications on comments posted to your posts, replies to your comments, or direct messages

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I’m not saying I don’t get notified. I’m saying they’re not on these posts at all from my instance. They haven’t federated.

@[email protected] do you know the answer when you first started your instance?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You're subscribed to this community, yes?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes! I imported my subs but I also unsubed and resubed

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not sure. Check if your system is dropping connections from other instances in proxy. Check logs of lemmy as well for errors. Check federation state with other instances.

Join the matrix channels. There's a lot of other admins there who might be able to help,
