In a recent thread asking for top five movies, my comment was added to another user’s post but weirdly they’re comment was VERY similar to mine. Then my exact same comment was added to ANOTHER user’s post. I’m now sure if this is an issue with the Memmy app or Lemmy I general, but the fact that my original comment was confused with another very similar comment is pretty sus. Why would this happen? Is it a coincidence?

And here is my original post.

Edit sorry, looks like my original post is a clone of another user. All of my comments are “In no particular order: Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, etc”

I'm so confused lol. So you're saying taihen and godless commented the same thing as you, and that you didn't comment clue, muppets, etc?

This one has my exact comment but with a different user name. What the hell is going on?

It’s likely just an app issue. I see your comment with proper accreditation in wefwef, Mlem, and on the mobile website. While using Memmy your comment appears as expected the first time I scroll through, but after I load more comments it is (seemingly) arbitrarily assigned to another user when I scroll back. It’s probably just some data structure merge error or something.
