For example, I’m on Lemmy.sdf.org and I joined the Apple@lemmy.ml community. But there are many missing articles and comments. If I browse directly on Lemmy.ml for the same article there ~90% of comments are missing.

https://lemmy.ml/post/1152794 has 26 comments https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/11232 has 0 comments

It doesn't take a while for comments to sync. Comments from before the first user subscribes simply do not sync.

Understood. The first user to subscribe may see it take a whole for the comments to sync.

That was my experience.
