Interesting the API returns the text for people that shouldn’t have access. That’s a bug with Lemmy I’d say. A ticket should probably be filed there
Put up a PR to fix this with voyager tho, quick change. Keeps the button around for mods & the author, but hides it for everyone else when the comment is removed
It seems to be a feature of Lemmy to keep deleted comments, so they can be restored if deleted by accident. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2977
A few weeks ago they merged a change to purge deleted comments after 30 days: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3208
For users that want to delete their comment, it seems like editing it is a more effective option.
