frozen, in How does comment federation work?

Two big things:

Time - Federation takes time. Especially if servers are overloaded or haven’t allocated enough federation workers. Both of these things have been true at some point for most instances since the population boom.

Defederation - Different instances can defederate from other different instances. So say for example I have three instances, lemmy.one, lem.two, and kbin.three. In this example, lemmy.one has defederated from kbin.three and the post in question is on lem.two/c/community.

You now have three scenarios:

  1. A user visits lem.two/c/community and sees all the content.
  2. A user visits kbin.three/m/[email protected] (or however kbin does cross instance URIs, I’m not familiar). This user sees most of the content. The limited factor here being time.
  3. A user visits lemmy.one/c/[email protected]. This user sees most of the content, but no comments from kbin.three because of defederation.

And I could be wrong, but I believe vote federation is separate from comment federation, so if that takes more time, then the comments sections might look different even if they have the exact same comments because of vote sorting.

Hyperreality,

Time - Federation takes time. Especially if servers are overloaded or haven’t allocated enough federation workers. Both of these things have been true at some point for most instances since the population boom.

Is this why I often don't see reply notifications?

frozen,

That’s an excellent question, I have no idea.

Hyperreality,

Me neither. Didn't see your reply either. Had to go back to the comments here to find out.

Wonder if it's a kbin/lemmy thing, because I think I receive a notification for 1/50 replies.

Every time my daughter cried as a baby my ears physically contracted internally and made a strange sound. For every, single, breath she cried.

Was bizarre. However, my son a year earlier. Nothing like that at all.

Can confirm I've had the same experience with my daughter. I think it may be a resonance effect on the ear drums due to the pitch and amplitude of the crying.

Chedawg, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

When a stone had my gallbladder blocked to the degree that they rushed me into emergency surgery when they saw it on a CT and it ruptured before they could remove it.

I have a very high pain tolerance and I couldn’t do pretty much anything but curl into a reverse ball and grit out a few words. They gave me as much morphine as is medically allowed and it did almost nothing. Dilaudid works though, not gonna lie lol, that finally helped until they put me under.

What’s funny is the memory of the pain has faded away somewhat, what I feel like I’ll remember on my deathbed is the sheer clarity of relief I felt when I woke up after surgery. I can’t describe how good that felt…

Dilaudid ftw! Only thing that helped with my gall bladder shitshow.

I’m suffering from migraines. Sometimes it feels like the new universe is being born inside of my skull. I’m cold and hot, I can’t move and I can’t open my eyes. I’m in an absolute darkness and it feels too bright. It’s most likely the worst.

Migraines are the worst. I have some form of migraine pain daily, but luckily those really hardcore debilitating ones are only a few times a month. 😵‍💫

Extreme gallbladder attack. I'd gone through a few in the months prior, and while excruciating, I wouldn't call unbearable. The last one though? The one that put me in hospital and required emergency surgery that day due to risk of rupture? Yeah. I've never felt pain like it. I've been stabbed and had kidney stones before. I'd rather get stabbed and have kidney stones again than EVER feel the level of pain that rotting, inflamed, shard-filled organ put me through (and kidney stones were fucking BAD.) I'm a 31 year old 6ft1" man, and this thing had me writhing on the floor in pain for hours before my wife forced me into the passenger seat of the car and rushed me to the ER.

I later found out that the 'food poisoning' I was hospitalized for around 5 years earlier was actually a gallbladder issue, and the hospital never told me. Basically, this fucking thing had been slowly rotting inside me for 5 years and I had no idea until it almost killed me out of nowhere. I'm still extremely fucking angry about it.

I had a very similar situation, aside from the stabbing part. Emergency surgery after about a week of pain cuz no one could figure out what was wrong.

Funny thing is my grandmother in law called it correctly on day one.

I hope no one takes this personally, it isn't, but this is the first thing that popped in to my mind reading this post.

I'm sorry. 😂

It's cloning. Canadian cloning. Like Ryan George and all his clone who run the entertainment industry in Canada. Producer, director, writer, sound guy, intern, etc.

In fact... you're all probably clones of Ryan George. Check to see if you're a Canadian named Ryan. Tons of you guys out there.

I've got a beard but I wear contacts and would never use an actual picture of myself on a public forum like this.

Do you reckon my pi counts?

solidly 50% of you look the same.

Let me inflate that statistic a little, as somebody without a profile pic who looks exactly like that

It's the modern adult nerd look... Lemmy probably has a pretty specific demographic at this point in time.

You weren’t informed about the kbin cloning experiment? It was in the t&c

I thought this would be obvious, bearded with poor vision checking in.

Your not asking the right question though, something that might now be obvious from profile pics. How many of the users are never-nude? 🤔

aeternum, in The worst physical pain you've ever experienced ?

I got attacked by scorpions in my bed. Holy shit that was painful.
