Anyone else getting this comment bug? (lemm.ee)

3 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I can't upload a screenshot because Connect is giving me a weird error (Sync doesn't have posting at all yet), but when I look at the comments, a lot of the top level ones have been replaced by a button that says "View Parent." Pressing it seems to sometimes show the parent comment and sometimes just skip down to the next thread.

I've seen a few people mention this and I have it, too. I think it's related to sorting.

This seems to be it

Those screenshots match some cases I've seen of the bug, but a lot of the time, it's the very top level comment that's hidden. It's most likely the same bug though, as I do sort by Top. I'm glad I'm not alone!

Yeah, sorting by Top seems to be an issue for some reason. And it doesn't seem to JUST be the top comment it's if any sub comment has more votes than the parent comment the parent comment either vanishes or randomly moves somewhere else in the thread.
