deleting works like that. when you delete a comment, you delete it from your own instance where you created it, but it is not deleted from all the other instances where it propagated meanwhile.
I believe it’s a sync issue between instances. Eventually, his comment should update and show as deleted on the instance you’re viewing from. New material seems to sync immediately across most instances, but edits/deletions appear to be lower-priority and take longer. Some mod actions like thread removals also don’t appear to sync correctly right away.
At least, that’s been my experience, not sure how much truth there is to that. I’m using Kbin, which is also a bit weird with Lemmy content in the first place (for instance, Kbin apparently does not recognized locked threads from other instances, and will still let you comment, though they won’t appear on the original instance at all).
It’s a limited-time event that Reddit occasionally does where users can all draw on a large, shared board, one pixel at a time. There’s a time limit on how often you can draw a single pixel. A lot of subreddits would get together to organize and plan out images for their communities to draw. And since it’s a single, shared whiteboard, you have a lot of communities competing with each other over space and vandalizing each other’s works. Then usually at the end Reddit will create a full-size PNG of the “completed” work and end the event.
It’s usually seen as a melting pot of the communities, where people could get together and interact with groups they probably wouldn’t have otherwise. Launching this now, when they’re facing so much backlash over a slew of ridiculous policy changes that have forced many users off the platform, is an incredibly delusional move on their part.
There are two things that Reddit wants to do with opening /r/Place again:
1: Trick the users into thinking that Reddit still cares about the community that they’ve nickeled and dimed off the platform
2: Force more people into using the official app and new web layout, since /r/Place can’t be interacted with using third-party apps or old.reddit
Definitely this, they have probably been planning this to pump their engagement numbers up. If I am gonna engage, then I’d better be doing it to give Reddit the middle finger.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !technology@beehaw.org
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
Sorry. What’s r/Place?
First sentence of the article:

Yeah I deleted the comment immediately as soon as I read the article but I guess I still got replies
It’s not deleted for me, I can still see it.

i have no idea whether it is a bug or feature.

Or 3. Something to boost engagement numbers they can show potential shareholders.

Typo for our place
