i think i found an ephemeral bug: i usually toggle blocking of lemmy.world when i want to browse by "All" and i didn't have it set when i first looked at the post; but just now i tried blocking and then unblocking again and now i can see the post.

and looking at the post's contents makes we wish i could go back to blocking it again unintentionally like i'm on a reverse piefed or on an instance using tesseract. lol

i don't know how it works at all since i don't use it on individuals, but i do use it on entire instances and it makes the entire posts look empty to me like this one did.
