I looked at this post and it showed for me as “53 (-7)” - and there’s a pile of “1 more reply” which don’t load. Were they comments that were deleted on their home instance so got disappeared here? (That’s just a spurious hypothesis, I haven’t gathered evidence at all.)
that’s what I’m wondering too! the “x more replies” thing that won’t load I usually associate with replies detaching from the thread, which could be due to other instances deleting replies or due to a bug. I need to click on one with the lemmy backend logs open soon and see what error it throws. if this is due to other instances deleting replies then it’s a broken feature, because any replies to those replies will be inaccessible on our end
huh, one more bug to keep track of! though I’m relieved we’re not falling victim to a silent wave of spam
