Confused about comments/posts not showing on other instances (lemmy.ml)

Am I not understanding how things are supposed to work, or are things just being weird? I made this post yesterday: https://lemmy.ml/post/1596015

It's about the 4th post down when sorted by New.

On lemmy.world it doesn't show at all.
On beehaw.org it shows with 1 comment made by another user.
On lemmy.ml it shows with that 1 comment plus a second comment I made today.

Is it normal for there to be these differences in the same community when viewed from different instances?

Lemmy to Lemmy federation of comments and postings is having widespread problems, especially the big 3 servers you mentioned.

There is an open issue on GitHub: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3101

I've also programmed a tool to compare two servers and compile an automatic list of comments that are missing, here are examples from recent days: https://lemmy.ml/post/1582415
