I made a post a little while back on one sub, it got come replies. Nothing abnormal. But when I click on them to reply it just leads to a mostly blank page. Not an error but not a blank page either. Just a mostly blank page. Lemmy still shows the header bar on top. And the links to "modlog" and "legal" and "instances" at the bottom. Everything between is blank. But there is space there as if SOMEthing was supposed to be there. Is this a bug?
Happens to me too. I notice sometimes a post will say 4 comments, but I only see 1. If I refresh the page the other 3 comments will appear. I found if I refresh the post first, then follow the link in my inbox, everything works as expected.
My uneducated guess is that you get a notification someone replied to you but when you follow the link it takes you to the unrefreshed post with missing comments.
