What the title says. The higher the number of comments under a post, the more likely there will be an error. I see a post, it says "X number of comments", but when I go to the comments and count them, I notice is X -10 approx. Often more than that. Is there a reason for this comment count discrepancy?
EDIT: Turns out is the same using a browser, so apologies for presuming it was an app related issue. If the mods think this post needs to go- please go ahead and delete
Could this be because of federation/defederation?
The post is in another instance than you and the comment is from an instance your instance has defederated from?
Update: i just did so. Jerboa says 28 comments for one post, but shows 18. From browser, Lemmy says and shows 18. So it doesn't look like a federation thing, especially since I wasn't logged in when using the browser.
