Blocking any domain seems to make certain stuff disappear (kbin.social)

I moderate @mcsuggestions, and today, I noticed that my comments on the two most recent threads didn't show up when I was logged in. After some experimentation, I figured out that whenever I had any domain blocked, all comments on those threads disappeared. From what I can tell in this magazine, others are experiencing the same problem. What's causing this?

And, while we're here, why am I taken to an error page every time I make a thread? That's also odd.

Edit: Haha, just remembered something based on another bug that occurred with this thread.

Those two threads I mentioned each had 4-5 copies that I had to delete. I assume that maybe it was a mistake due to the error page when you post a thread, but it turns out that this very thread posted twice somehow. Maybe that's part of the cause here?

This seems to be a popular topic today, I imagine it must be getting worse for kbin.social users (the errors when posting threads / images, if it is that)

I made this issue for what you described https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/1019

@ernest sorry to ping you but just want to make sure you're aware of this as the last ~4+ posts to this magazine have been about this issue

Thanks for reaching out, I'll look into it today.

This has potentially been fixed as a part of https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/1038

I don't think @ actually pings a notification to users. He does respond to direct messages sometimes though.

I think the issue also makes it so if you have domains blocked, you can’t see other people’s posts that have the no-domain thing. I check to see if there are similar posts before I post something, but don’t recall seeing any, which was why I made a new post. Now I can see all of them. Memory is a pretty flaky thing and maybe I missed seeing them when I was scrolling to check, but I wouldn’t have made my own post if I’d seen a similar one.
