I may not be understanding correctly, but that seems like a huge downside to the current implementation of federation, and especially hurts new and small instances?

Using the user's profile example in the OP, one of them doesn't have comments from !lemmy.world/c/politics, so that means that no one on futurology.today has subscribed to /c/politics, and no results will show until someone does?

I see that https://futurology.today/c/politics@lemmy.world loads but the posts are all days old and there's no "top day".

 

Futurology.today blocks fewer instances (and is blocked by fewer) than lemmy.world https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances so it can't be that.

Search:

I tried to search this community before posting and when I go to https://futurology.today/c/fediverse@lemmy.world then click the search icon in the top right, it loads a search page https://futurology.today/search that is searching the whole fediverse.

So I click on "community -> all" and type in "fediverse" then click on this community, and it takes me to https://futurology.today/search?type=All&listingType=All&communityId=70&page=1&sort=TopAll. I see "&communityId=70" in the URL but the page still says it's searching the whole fediverse.

Are either of these bugs that I should report on github?

If I do a search from https://futurology.today/search?type=All&listingType=All&communityId=70&page=1&sort=TopAll it does only search this community. But if I use the first link it doesn't.

Yes, it's possible via kbin.social.

kbin lets you see who voted for what https://lemmy.world/post/3027601

Open any post on KBin. Click the url (x comments) so that the title shows in the URL, and add /votes/down. Eg:

The link is also at the bottom of every thread.

For comments, click on "more -> activity".

The URLs are different so you can't just edit the URL, you have to find the post on kbin.social: https://lemmy.world/post/8552850 vs https://kbin.social/m/fediverse@lemmy.world/t/643937

If a kbin.social user comments on the thread you can find it that way (their fediverse link).
