Bug: Editing a comment doesn’t stick (lemmy.world)

When editing a comment and posting the edit, if you then want to re-edit the comment you get the original comment, not the edited version. This only happens when using the 3 dot menu on the right of the comment. If you tap and hold and use that edit, it shows the most recent. Supremely annoying.

Really? Hmmm

Edit: didn’t happen to me, but the app did crash between edits… I tried to pull to refresh the comments section.

Edit: did it again, edit a comment, pull to refresh, crash. Then when you come back, and edit again, the appropriate text shows up in the field. There’s something fun going on there after a comment is edited.

Edit: but if I don’t try to pull to refresh comments, when I go to do a second edit since loading the comments section I see the original comment text in the edit field.

Great find, I’ll look into this! I also noticed that the edit and delete option shows up in one menu, even if it isn’t your own comment. So something funky is happening in those menu’s
