    There have been some issues with piefed not federating comments. The piefed devs says the issue is fixed but I’ve still been noticing issues with my piefed account, so I’m just back to using my older lemmy account. I’d post to the piefed meta about the issue so the devs can take a crack at fixing it

    Edit: but also this thread only has two comments that Incan see, yours, mine and another one. This was crossposted to the fedimemes community too. Maybe just confirm you are looking at the same thread before proceeding

      Confirmed. What really set me off is that the comment counter I see currently sits at 25, but checking now, those are ‘imported’ comments seemingly coming from “Fediverse memes@feddit.uk.”

      Going through my blocked /c list, that particular one doesn’t seem to be blocked, but I do have a lot of meme communities indeed blocked. I think then, that’s likely what happened. I got tripped up by thinking in the ‘block post’ mindset, unintendingly blocking comments I otherwise wanted to see.

      Okay, I think mystery solved. Thanks for your feedback on that!

          The community was (very likely) blocked that produced a bunch of the tallied comments here, that’s all. Blocked in my personal settings.

          So now the comment counter sits at 37, and I can see many more of them that were later produced in this version of the thread, but still not from Fediverse memes@feddit.uk. I think what caused that is that the post probably originated there, then was cross-posted here. But PieFed (and maybe Lemmy) evidently has a feature which pulls in comments from places where a single thread was cross-posted, leading to the root of this issue.

          Make sense?
