    !justpost@lemmy.world does not seem to federate well for me - all of the posts seem to have no up (or down) votes or any comments. Then again, Discuss.Online just updated to 0.19.5 yesterday (from .3) so perhaps it’s related to that. Usually when nobody from an instance has yet subscribed to a community, the posts themselves are not visible. This is the first time I’ve seen something like this where I can see posts, but the content in them (votes and comments) are missing.

    Oh, also I see none of the posts that are more recent than a month ago (28 days). Though looking at it from a different instance reveals that there are new posts.

    I just subscribed so hopefully that will help this instance federate the content in a few hours from now.

    My normal process, if it helps to know, is to browse All, often by New, and if I see content that I like I will subscribe, or conversely if I dislike it (like a location-specific community) then I will block it. It seems that in this case, since nobody from my instance had subscribed before (or even weirder, someone did but then somehow that was dropped, 28 days ago), that was not working, since posts from it were not showing up even in “All”.

    It looks to be a very nice community - I will enjoy checking it out when it’s ready, and will recommend it to others, thank you very much for sharing:-).
