Why do i see so many comments that are missing? Sometimes they are in threads that are getting heated and I could understand someone deleting a really bad take but other times it’s in a shitpost like the example.
This is what you see when you block someone
Ohh, I thought it was what you see when someone blocks you.
Problem is, can 100% confirm if you block em that is what ya see, not sure bout if they block you
my guess is whoever you were responding to deleted their account.
side note: those comments without context is funny af
There is no record of this comment
There is no war in Ba Sing Se
Probably something with federation running behind.
Like, you’re instance A, one of those accounts is on instance B, and the ones you can’t see are from instance C.
So A has an issue with C, but B doesn’t.
So A (you) can see comments from A and B. But B can see comments from A,B, and C.
A doesn’t see the C’s, but knows B has replied.
It’s also possible your app is the issue if not using web client.
That makes sense. I don’t usually use the web client.
are you blocking someone, individually or instance?
either that or comments were purged, or account was deleted with content
I don’t think I’m blocking anyone specifically. I might be blocking an instance. I’ll have to look into that.
