Why do some posts and communities not show up on all instances? (lemmy.ml)

Reddit refugee and Noob to lemmy/fediverse here.

For example, I'm currently logged into my lemmy.ml account, and subscribed to !anime@lemmy.ml and I can see a lot of posts there. I can also see that it has over 3K users.

If I log into lemmynsfw.com, and look at my subscription to !anime@lemmy.ml, I only see a few posts, and I know there are several that are missing. Also, it tells me that the community only has 8 users.

Is this synching problem common in lemmy, and/or the fediverse in general?

Do I have to create a new account on each server hosting communities that I want to keep up to date on?

Ah, I think this post answers my question.

IMO this is a key weakness of Lemmy as it stands right now.

That, and I need my nsfw, so defederating lemmynsfw.com from here is a big minus for this instance.
