Comment removed and user banned. Not sure why you can still see the comment, though. The API still returns the comment text even if it’s removed, and the client has to redact it (that’d be a Sync thing).
Indeed. I don’t know if that behavior has changed past 0.19.3, but that’s the version my instance and Lemmy World (OP’s instance) is using, and that’s how it be.
Wonder what the reasoning behind that is. Some of the takes people (devs and users) have had on Lemmy design decisions have been frankly a bit weird too – like when someone requested instance blocking so they could block Lemmygrad:
dessalines: This may be a non-issue, because I’ve added an easy way to block communities from that community page in the next release (you could already block them by going into your user settings). So you could just block communities from instances you’d rather not see, as they show up in your feed.
I kind of agree with nutomic tho, that if you don’t want to see communism in your feed, you’re better off signing up for an explicitly anti-communist instance.
And someone suggested instance blocks be logged and reported to admins:
ericjmorey: The implementation of this feature should include a log and reporting accessable to instance admins of when a blocking action was taken and the current state of which instances are being blocked by which accounts.

Weird API. Returning the text for deleted comments and then expecting clients to redact it seems highly silly

It has changed since then. 19.4 or 19.5

It’s not my comment.
