    That’s the way the Fediverse works. When you post a comment, an update is distributed with your comment. Once you delete it, an update is distributed that you deleted your comment. Lemmy then still shows that there was a comment but it has been deleted. Federation delays could mean that they didn’t see your comment as deleted instantly. In theory, a Fediverse instance could also just ignore the deletion update and keep showing the deleted comment.
