OK I got some time to properly test this, this happens because you can mark a comment as deleted even if it’s already marked as such. and the db trigger happens every time value of deleted is updated regardless of previous state
This also means I can inflate the number of comments by marking deleted as false repeatedly
Thanks for figuring it out. Could you please open an issue?
Done
Thanks :)
This happens when more people downcomment your post.
Why do I see your comment highlighted?
This visualizes the fact this comment is new, made less than 10 minutes ago. 10 minutes after the comment is posted, the comment background colour goes back to the default one. My comment will be highlighted for the first 10 minutes as well. Your comment appears as such for us, too.
thank you
I took a look, and I suspect it’s because a user left three comments and then deleted them all. It’s probably the comment counter mistakenly thinking it should subtract one for each removed comment.

I suspect it’s not registering the plus three and just subtracting three. Again, it’s an error/bug so it doesn’t make sense.
