I started a private instance today, and maybe I’m being impatient but I’d like to know if there’s something I can do on my end to keep my instance more closely in sync with the remote communities I’ve subscribed to. I don’t seem to be missing any new posts, but there are so many missing comments which makes the sort options (Active, Hot) bring up posts that sometimes are weeks old. Are there any configuration options or tuning options that could help my instance “keep up”?
That makes sense, thank you for the insight. Also it’s a good sign that this post and the comments are federated correctly from my instance to lemmy.ml, kbin.social and your own instance as well. Very cool to see this in action.
