Bug report: When checking our own comments and tapping "Show context" the comments don't follow each other like they should

FiskFisk23 and my comment are both replies to Botree's comment, it gets even more confusing when tapping Show context a second or third time.

- Thanks!
- That's just about some android bug that may be related. This is affecting all of lemmygrad and as far as I can tell, other lemmy instances too.
  
  What makes you think that?
Just considering raising a bug report with the same issue.
I've seen this, too, and was quite confused until I realized what was going on. It's not site-breaking for me, but I do find it odd.
It probably happens because in this case, the child comment is the "center" of the comment tree, and the dev may have wanted to present it's parent as a tree going the opposite direction. But it is confusing.
I must be in the minority here in thinking that this is virtually site-breaking. Whatever broke this should have been rolled back immediately.
I logged in after a few days to about 20 replies and had no easy way to tell what comment of mine people were replying to. I gave up searching after a while.
