In the last few weeks, I frequently see some empty comments. It’s just the username and no text beneath.
Is there a deeper reason behind this? Do people nowadays strip away the text instead of deleting a comment? Or did some script surface that ‘makes the internet forget’? First I thought people did this before deleting a comment and the deletion just didn’t get federated. But I scrolled through some older posts and they also still have comments like that, so that can’t be it. Right?
Can anyone educate me?
Probably same reason as here: https://lemm.ee/post/35007837
Hmmh, not sure. I think broken images show up with some character. But that post also has one comment that shows empty in one App and text plus a picture on a different App. I think I need some time and figure out what it does on the computer.
