Why are communities on Lemmy.ml more full compared to the same on a different Lemmy instance?

For example, I’m on Lemmy.sdf.org and I joined the Apple@lemmy.ml community. But there are many missing articles and comments. If I browse directly on Lemmy.ml for the same article there ~90% of comments are missing.
