Alfresco does not keep site-dashboard for every user. That is not possible from a technical perspective based on how site-dashboards are implemented. The only thing that would be user-specific are dashlet preferences e.g. for the heigth of a specific, resized dashlet or the state of some filters.

Only the user dashboards are kept separate for every user.

Thank you for your quick answer.

So this seems to be more of an error, I thought this was an issue but when i looked it up, I have found that indeed some people are having it and others not.

See this thread for example : Site Dashboard customization

Could you point me in a direction I can look into this, what can be causing this?

I did some further tests and found out that after rebooting my servers, all the users have their site dashboard up to date. So I am guessing that this is cache related.
