I noticed this too. I think this might have something to do with the federation. As you also stated a lot of instances are overloaded right now and I think it shows you the local amount of upvotes first and then the ones from the other instances.
Edit: I press Post and the upvotes for this post jumped to 996, then 44 and now 154. There's more going on for sure :)
Iโm on my own instance and Iโve started seeing it. My instance is in no way overloaded. If upvote it goes to the correct number and stays there.
Yeah but your own instance is still communicating with the other instances which are overloaded. The numbers are indeed all over the place and when I press the upvote arrow it doesn't seem to be working either. Or rarely at least..
