Really old posts maybe, but it might help to see which posts you are trying to comment on

Oldest post for me is this one from 5 years ago: https://lemmy.ca/post/375988

I was able to comment on it just now

I think you mean months, and your comment isn't visible?

Edit: link took me somewhere strange :/

Just checked: That post says 5 years, and I can see Otter's comment

Bizarre, that link takes me to a completely different post. Apologies, I can see the post and comment if i type it into a browser.

I was eventually able to reply, but the error has popped up on me numerous times

Did it by any chance take you to https://programming.dev/post/375988?

I remember seeing people have that issue before but I don't remember what app they were on.

Ultra anecdotal, but I once had issues because I was setting the language of a comment. Didn't get an error, it just wouldn't post. Something to look out for.
