When I block an instance, does it also block comments of users of those instances on other instances? (lemmy.world)

I have been wondering that myself for a while now...

I'm seeing tons of "No comments" despite there being comments... sometimes dozens kd comments aren't there....

How does that work with defederated instances?

When an instance is defederated, that happens at the server level. That content doesn't get loaded onto your Lemmy instance to begin with, and so you wouldn't see anything. From memory the comment count would be lower on a post on your instance compared to the foreign one

That might be your language settings. Go into your main Lemmy settings and make sure that 'Undetermined' is selected
