I just set up my instance and noticed that posts on my Instance dont have the same upvote and comment counts? What couses this and how can I solve it?
Example: https://lemmy.ohaa.xyz/post/151 - 26 Upvotes and 12 Comments
https://lemmy.ml/post/3331957 - 611 Upvotes and 54 Comments

The only accurate number is the host instance. You're not thinking in fediverse terms. What about votes from federated instances? If you have some blocked that they don't the numbers won't match. What about banned users? If someone is banned from theirs but not yours the numbers won't match.
