If you visit https://lemmy.world/post/1181467?scrollToComments=true and check the post, the tiny comment icon under the post says that there are 5 comments. Checking the post however, you can see that there are only 3.
Is this some Lemmy bug, or does Lemmy shadow-remove comments like Reddit?
There’s no shadow removal, no. There are barely any mod tools at all :-/
Have you blocked anyone?
Nope. Haven’t blocked anyone.
It’s possible someone had blocked you, then.
I checked using incognito and via a different IP address, it only shows 3 comments in https://lemmy.world/post/1181467?scrollToComments=true
My guess is it being some weird bug.
How many comments does it show for you?
