I’m pretty confused about one thing.

When deleting your own comment, there always stays a placeholder in its place. I noticed this with my own and other lemmings posts.

So far so good, but i tried to reply to a deleted comment by another lemming and above the reply box was the full comment the other user deleted.

I mean the full content of the comment that was deleted.

Is this the normal behavior in Lemmy or is it Sync?

I mean, i want my deleted comments to disappear and not just hidden and for everyone available to read.

Please try it out and reply to my deleted comment in this post. Just above the reply textarea you’ll see my deleted comment.

    What’s the difference between removed and deleted in the response?

      Removed by Mod vs. Deleted by User

      (you may have already seen this - my original reply went to the wrong place. Which is another Sync bug incidentally, when using the notification to reply (Android))

        Ah, of course. Makes sense. Thanks, friend!

        (Wow, that’s a severe bug!)
