    try ordering by new, the active ordering will show old threads if people are still commenting on them

    and that’s a good thing, on reddit you kind of can’t keep a conversation as the threads die too fast

      I compared all the “algorithms” a little and think sorting by hot is the way to go. You should see some more posts than one every four days lol.

    You sure they’re federated w/ your instance?

    Check out the sub on dbzer first?

    Ah yes, gatekeeping people who are new and asking for help.

    A great way to build a thriving community that will be doing great 10 years from now, by alienating all the new people who are starting to take an interest and ask for some advice.

    What are you expecting to be posted? Are you expecting links to warez, torrents, cracks, etc?

      You should be able to see everything on here if we go by the instances list on your site.
      Could it be that the number of comments that you can actually see doesn’t match the counter because some were deleted?

      Well, the original post is less than 30 minutes old, you’ve had a few comments and votes. You’ve also been on Lemmy for at least 2 months, so you should already be aware that federation between countless servers can take a few minutes. Just chill, you’re cool 😎

        To me what’s seen on the screenshot means that the comments have been kind-of synchronized but actually not, and it has bugged away or the comments somehow got filtered out.

      If this is an issue you experience with pirate subs mostly, you might wanna consider making an account on the dbzer0 instance.

      What are your language settings set to in your Lemmy profile? I know if you deselect Undetermined, it will cause this.

      That also being said, most of the comments here are tagged as English, and the comment in your screenshot doesn’t seem like it was tagged as such - weird question, but do you by chance have English deselected?

      When I view this post from the feddit.uk instance, I can see all the comments so I don’t think it’s a sync issue, unless they’re all appearing for you now.

        How do you even select or deselect languages, the language selector in the settings doesn’t seem to work.

      I find that comment visibility improves when you visit the post from a different community

      I’ve noticed the same issue on many posts. I am using the app, liftoff. If I just refresh the page all the missing comments load. I don’t know if this works on other apps or in your browser, but it works for me.

    Okay, here’s a real pirate question: What was Captain Hooks name before he lost his hand?

      According to Hook (1991) his full name is Captain James Hook, so I always assumed that was just his surname and he decided to use a hood on the stump because of that. He also had several different attachments for his stump, which was quite innovative.
