Also - I just noticed that a significant number of messages are entirely missing from "all". I have messages to "5 hours ago" and then there's a huge lacuna to "2 days". I've been posting quite a lot so ~40-ish messages are missing. If not a lot more.

Off topic: Who doesn't like the word "lacuna"?

yeah, I have had one or two comment replies just disappear and not notify me, and I suppose that's just the ones I've gone back and noticed... There might be something going on here

The weirder thing for me is the lacuna. I'm assume it's a "cosmetic" bug and the database (or whatever it's called) is still okay. I sure hope so.

in my experience that's likely. The lemmy UI produces some weird results like that, but the backend is solid. Like on profile pages, you don't see all comments and posts in chronological order, it seems to grab the most recent x number of comments and x number of posts, and makes a list from that, so usually it will be like "comment comment comment post comment comment post post post post post" with a glut of older posts at the end
