Opening an issue to discuss the Condenser/Hivemind problem ... and to find a solution

I know that many of the users I communicate with on Steem feel the same way as I do:
The many erroneous data that the Steemit Condenser has been displaying for some time are quite annoying and ruin the joy of the conversation on Steem. I apologise for my somewhat sparse comments in the recent past. :-)

Even displaying the community posts on my site, for example for this community with https://moecki.online/hive-151113, doesn't help. That's because the post display is redirected to the Steemit Condenser and I can only see incorrect data there.
Hosting the Condenser myself would only be a short-term solution. I would have to change a few things in the code for the long term.

So over the last few days I have been looking for what could be causing the error. Unfortunately, I don't have all the information about the Hivemind node, which is requested via api.steemit.com. Therefore, a further exchange is necessary to narrow down the problem.

For this purpose (and for a little transparency) I have now opened an issue on Github: https://github.com/steemit/hivemind/issues/329

Unfortunately, the first thing I realised from my research was that the latest Pull Request probably does not solve the problems with the incorrect data, as the Condenser does not use the queries changed there for the post display.

It could therefore also be a sync or recount problem. To narrow this down, I hope that the involved developers will participate. The first people who come to mind are @ety001 and @justyy... in addition to the many others who can also contribute.
