I just noticed one post had a negative amount of comments showing on it.

This is a known lemmy bug (not unique to your app), when you delete a comment it puts the comment counter down by 1 every time you hit the delete button, instead of just 1 overall.
This means I can delete the same comment and, before it refreshes, delete it several more times and trick the instance into thinking I’ve deleted more comments than exist.
Thank you for sharing that, I was very confused for a second lol.
Ngl I kinda love this. Lol

ironically this post shows -7 for me, and when i came to the comments there were a bunch of removed by user and only one actual comment
I deleted a bunch right off the bat to seed a negative count for people to see, I did not know (though I should have) that people would keep doing it.
