Sometimes a post will say on Jerboa that there is one comment but on the post none is visible. Is this a problem with Jerboa? Is it because the commenter may not be federated with my instance? Or is it a problem with Lemmy?
If the language tag of the comment is different from the languages you selected in your settings, it won’t be displayed but the count always shows the total number of comments.
I’m currently undefined so I think it’s more likely to be a federation issue.
There’s currently a bug that can mean some comments fail to federate.
It can also just be because the comments are in a language you haven’t selected in user settings.
It happens to me too
I interestingly even saw -2 (-1 new) earlier. There were more.
Now that is definitely weird
