      It’s how federation works, if you are the first from your instance you don’t see posts, after some minutes the 2 servers communicate behind the scenes, and for your second visit everything looks normal. This is per instance, so it seems you were the first from lemmy.ca to click on that community.

        TIL! Thanks! I’ve wondered why the F there are zero posts. That said, I’m on Lemmy.world and not constantly on my phone, so that’s not a good sign.

            I’m not on ca. I’m on world. But I can see how I might have been first because I had just hit the scales sort and it was the first post I saw. It’s possible that I was in before anyone else on the instance.

        When I first navigated to the community it said 0 posts, but when I refreshed they showed up. It still said 0, but I could see them. Leaving and coming back fixed it though. I don’t know if that’s on Lemmy’s side or the app I’m using (Boost).
