Hi, I made a comment on this post: https://beehaw.org/post/594846 "soliciting a new round of community suggestions"

Then, I got a notification that linked me to this post https://beehaw.org/post/598152 "Admins, you’re doing great, but please - fewer sticky threads." (this comment). @Los said

Did you mean to post this in the suggestions thread?

My browser window was still open with that tab (the suggestions thread) on top as I left it. Returned half hour later, I clicked the notification icon and this is my notification. I didn't even see this other thread before; I didn't open it or anything. In my Firefox browser history it says I have visited this URL 1 time (after clicking the notification).

So no idea how it got redirected here. I'm happy to admit to user error or potential user error but in this case I am 99% certain something weird happened.

Hopefully an isolated incident... But if there are imps running around in the server misfiling things that could cause quite the confusion.

Just sharing in case there is a pattern.... nothing to be done about it otherwise.

that is wild

if it happens while writing it means most likely to happen on loooooong comments. maybe it is the system punishing those of us who are excessively verbose. ha!

a little spice in the pot. 🍲 In case lemmy would get boring and complacent.
