I'm not aware how fediverse works, can someone explain why when I look at the same post through lemm.ee instance and through hexbear instance they have different amount of comments? There are some overlapping comments, but those ones have different amount of likes and dislikes. I'm a bit confused

@ma1w4re It's because it works similar to email. When someone posts, it sends out copies of the message to all of the followers. But some don't arrive, or some people have blocks in place, or something is not configured right. As a result, not all servers get the complete conversation.

But some people are working to fix that so that all of the servers that support threaded conversations can download the complete conversation.

I see, interesting. Thank you
