Comment Stream returns old comments

[marvin-bitterlich]

It seems to me that streeming of comments finds old posts, often multiple days old…

It may be that the stream matches resteems but I could not verify this. Is there a way to filter out resteems?

[Netherdrake]

you mean steem.stream_comments()?

If its streaming old content, while asked to stream head, it means that the node its connected to is lagging behind.

That is really weird then. Because I got posts from 2 days ago using this method… That is lagging way behind!

what is the output of piston config in cli?

[marvin-bitterlich]

 > piston config
+-----+-------+
| Key | Value |
+-----+-------+
+-----+-------+

Only used the lib so far, so this is a fresh install…

[Netherdrake]

try piston set node wss://steemd.steemit.com

[marvin-bitterlich]

I'll report back with how that works!

Still the same thing: I got this post https://steemit.com/fusion360/@lazzelazer/intro-inventor-3d-specialist-gold-prospector-among-other-things-checking-in from yesterday.

Are you sure resteems are filtered out?

It's because posts, that was edited, add to new block
