I've made 3 comments in the past 2 days but none of them show up if I look at the home instance of the communities they're on. They're all on lemmy.world, but I see comments from other instances in the threads so I don't think the problem is on their end.
edit: specific comments

edit: seems to go back further than I thought, at least 3 days, and including other instances:

Same! After a while they do seem to federate. Conversely I often see comments from other people later as well. E.g. I comment on a post where I see no responses, 2 days later I can see there were a few people who posted before me.
That doesn't seem to be happening for me. Comments from 5 days ago still aren't syncing. Feels like I'm shadowbanned.
I just checked, the last comment I made that got an upvote was 2 days ago on startrek.website. Aside from discuss.tchncs.de of course.
