I’m experimenting with hosting my own instance. It seems like things are working, e.g. the steps in the troubleshooting doc work, http routing seems correct, etc. I can subscribe to other instance’s communities and see the posts. However, comments are not syncing at all not even new ones. I suspected it might be a lemmy.ml problem, but I also get this behavior from other instances as well. I am running 0.17.3. How do I debug this, or is it the expected behavior (new to Lemmy, of course).
Are all languages selected on the admin panel? And do you have at least English and Undetermined selected (or none - works too) on your user panel?
This + needing to give things time to populate is what I ran into starting mine
