I made a comment in a community and then blocked that community. Why am I getting notifications from that comment? I don’t want to read replies to my comment. I don’t want to get notifications from that community. I am uninterested, and the contact is unwanted. That is why I blocked it — it’s almost the entire point beyond filtering the feed.

Is this normal on lemmy? Do I really have to unblock the community and remove the post in order to get this to stop? That seems nuts, so I’m thinking I’m missing something obvious. If someone could explain what I’m missing, or if this is indeed a privacy oversight, it would be appreciated.

    This likely is a bug. If you want to help improving lemmy, you could create an Issue on GitHub.

    Why would you comment on a blocked community? You either engage or ignore. You can’t have your cake and have it, too.

    This feels so weird, “teaching a lesson” I’d give an infant to an adult on the internet.

        I thought this comment was replying to my OP and was super confused. Deleted my response because it made no sense once I realized you were responding to this dude and not me.

      Who asked?

      I’m pointing out a bug. I am not soliciting your opinion on the circumstances of how the bug happened. The fact that you felt the need to completely ignore the pertinent question and instead speculate on the circumstances is mind-boggling and paints you as a busybody with nothing better to do.

      Since we’re dishing out advice unsolicited, here’s mine: when someone submits a bug or issue like this, refrain from chiming in if you have nothing related to the issue at hand.

      Edit: Also, for what it’s worth, I commented on a community and then blocked it. The entire premise of your criticism is wrong. I don’t understand where your confidence comes from.
