I have the same issue. I use multiple accounts across different servers, and get a different subset of comments across each one. Not sure the solution right now.

Not sure if this is the same problem, but it has been noticed that passing messages between federated instances has been hampered by the way the "worker threads" are currently been done. The big instances are essentially getting overloaded with outbound federation work. Solutions for that are in the works. issue/3230
Thanks for pointing this out, I am just now realizing I am also missing comments. For example this post, I have 7 comments, but the actual post has 10.
Yep, it's because of the volume of comments/posts going through the big instances right now, and how many people are subscribed outside of those instances. It's too much for the server to keep up. I noticed over the last day or two my feed has mostly been Beehaw.org stuff because they don't seem to be having as hard of a time. It sure is looking like we need more separation like startrek.website, and maybe it was a bad idea to allow communities to just be made by anyone on lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works. Would've made more sense for all the users to be on these instances, but the communities hosted elsewhere.
I had a similar problem that ended up having to do with my server's language settings. I didn't realize you can select more than just "Undetermined" by holding down shift or ctrl. So everything tagged as English didn't appear until I went back and fixed it. You can read the whole odyssey here: https://lemmy.ml/post/1205767
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I am commenting on this post from my own instance and it says it has 0 replies which I know is wrong. I did only federate with Selfhosted just a few hours ago. Who know how long it will take this post to get back to lemmy.world.
Yeah, it’s definitely annoying, but if it’s any consolation, it’s a system-wide problem. Not sure if/when/how they fix, but if this place is going to be a long term Reddit replacement, I feel like they’re going to have to.
