How come I can’t see all comments in some (maybe all?) posts on Lemmy?

Raging LibTarg@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 112 points –

In the screenshot I’ve included, you can see that the number of comments for the post is 20+. However, I only see 2 comments when I look at the post.

Is this just a byproduct of federation? I don’t think I’ve blocked any instances yet, but is it possible the comments are from instances blocked my lemmy.world? Also, I use Memmy on iOS; could that be the cause?

Appreciate any insight!

Change it to English lol. I forget where it was said, but a month or so ago I remember someone saying there had been an issue where if you leave it as Undetermined, it won't show you most English content.

I think this was the trick! Changed language setting so that “Undetermined” and “English” and comments in this very post appeared that weren’t there before! Thanks so much!

I just selected all languages so I'd be able to see everything.

Not available on connect you can only choose undetermined afaik
