Missing comments from subscribed community on another instance? (jamie.moe)

I do the majority of my Lemmy use on my own personal instance, and I've noticed that some threads are missing comments, some large threads, even large quantities of them. Now, I'm not talking about comments not being present when you first subscribe/discover a community to your instance, in this case, I noticed it with a lemmy.world thread that popped up less than a day ago, very well after I subscribed.

At the time of writing, that thread has 361 comments. When I view the same thread on my instance, I can see 118, that's a large swathe of missing content for just one thread. I can use the search feature to forcibly resolve a particular comment to my instance and reply to it, but that defeats a lot of the purpose behind having my own instance.

So has anyone else noticed something similar happening? I know my instance hasn't gone down since I created it, so it couldn't be that.

I seriously thought I'm alone with this issue, but it seems it's fairly common for people hosting on their own. Same as you guys, it won't sync everything, some communities are even "stuck" with posts from a day back, even though there were many new ones posted.

Kind of off topic question, but I guess it's related? Is there anyone that can't pull a certain community from an instance? I seem to can't pull !asklemmy@lemmy.world or anything from that community, that includes posts and comments. No matter how many times I try, it won't populate on my instance.

EDIT: Caught this in my logs:

lemmy | 2023-06-20T08:48:21.353798Z ERROR HTTP request{http.method=GET http.scheme="https" http.host=versalife.duckdns.org http.target=/api/v3/ws otel.kind="server" request_id=cf48b226-cba2-434a-8011-12388c351a7c http.status_code=101 otel.status_code="OK"}: lemmy_server::api_routes_websocket: couldnt_find_object: Failed to resolve actor for asklemmy@lemmy.world

EDIT2: Apparently it's a known issue with !asklemmy@lemmy.world, and a bug to be fixed in a future release.
