Made a post in a fairly niche community a few days back, it got 6 replies, only 4 of which I can actually see. Is this some sort of federation issue or something else? Its been showing 6 replies for a couple of days at least now, so if that was it I would have thought the last 2 would have come through by now

Post in question is here; https://lemmy.world/post/2264735

Maybe if someone on another instance or on kbin can take a look for me and see if they can see all 6 I’d appreciate that thanks

I’ve also noticed this rather frequently. I kind of assumed the comment count was wrong, but maybe there is some hidden comments from a federation bug.

Yes, hard to say, was hoping someone more experienced might be able to elaborate

There are some known bugs around comment counts handling deleted and edited comments. The counts aren’t exact right now, nothing you can do though.
