Well, you’re the safety expert. You know how bugs are in software, so mysterious and appearing and disappearing on us!
I’ve seen a couple of “phantoms” myself. I suddenly got 300-alerts all at once, and then… nothing. I’m thinking the frontend / Javascript layer of Lemmy isn’t quite perfect yet. Its probably best if we kept a log of any particular bugs we come across. Phantoms or not, I’m sure that the Lemmy community and developers would appreciate it in the long term.
There seems to be a good sized list of bugs, unintended behaviors, and features that flat out don’t work when more than a few thousand people use the system. If there are rust devs in the comments here, I’m sure your help would be appreciated.
So it’d be unrelated to the number of users IMO, but maybe due to the fact that I’m using say… Firefox, and maybe the behavior is slightly different than Chrome or something.
So, a possible bug in Lemmy… I am not sure yet though.
It looks like when I was composing some recent comments… if you post something in another thread… it like “shifts” my comment over to your thread…
I do not know if it because you are a mod or something, but it was quite surprising behavior.
If I did not just go crazy or something, I am certain that someone else would have noticed this by now.

I would expect my bug to be UI-based.

Seems like someone else has this “shifted comment” bug?

And another one. Looks to be somewhat common.
Yeah. They are going to have to fix that pronto.
