    Isn’t it currently also cached on the instance where the user is registered?

    An earthling should not register on the mars instance or vice versa because of latency.

    But commenting from the point of view of the earthlings should be smooth

      So you’re saying the comments themselves get cached on the local instance where the user is registered before being synced with the remote community-hosting instance?

      I honestly don’t know how these things work internally, but had assumed the comments needed to go straight to the remote instance given the way you can’t comment once said instance goes down? You can still read the cached content though.
