It seems like they both imply deletion, but I can still see the comment
Comment removed and user banned. Not sure why you can still see the comment, though. The API still returns the comment text even if it's removed, and the client has to redact it (that'd be a Sync thing).
Weird API. Returning the text for deleted comments and then expecting clients to redact it seems highly silly
Indeed. I don't know if that behavior has changed past 0.19.3, but that's the version my instance and Lemmy World (OP's instance) is using, and that's how it be.
