Well, if the comments do sync in real-time that's great, that means live threads are possible in Lemmy.
It can’t possibly be as live as on Reddit if a lot of people are commenting from / subscribed from different instances. But I feel comments in general comes in fairly quickly.
If you really want fully live, you want something like IRC, Discord or another fully live chat.
For live-thread purposes within a minute or two is good enough. Besides, people watching on various streams have a bit of lag to deal with too.
Lemmy can potentially create a “live” mode for threads that can be turned on and that gives priority to syncing comments, if interest is there and it’s necessary for a good, federated experience.
