When on lemm.ee, the instance I have an account on, I don’t see comments on a post in another instance (lemmy.world), so I cannot interact with/reply to a comment on that post. When I go to lemmy.world itself and go to that post, I see comments. However, since I don’t have an account on that instance, I cannot interact with that post.

I’m still incredibly new to lemmy/the fediverse/etc etc so please let me know what I’m doing wrong!

    Is lemm.ee new? You will only pull in comments and posts on stuff that was posted after your instance was created. Not only that but I think it also only pulls in content from communities once a user subscribed to it - so if you newly subscribed to a community, it will pull in a few recent posts IIRC. But if you find an older post it won’t grab the comments. I think

      lemm.ee is about a day old I think (based on posts). the post I’m trying to interact with is 3h old, and I just subbed to the community about 20 mins ago. so does that mean I just have to wait and eventually the content will come through or it’ll never come through?

        I don’t think it will come through unless it’s forced to somehow. For example, if someone tagged you in a reply in a comment on that post.
