I've never seen this before and I haven't updated to the version with the two 'search' icons in the homebar.

Ow, that was confusing, a screenshot of the Jerboa app in the Jerboa app. I could hardly tell where one stopped and the other began. Could probably do with some design changes.
And here I was, tapping like an idiot on the screenshot, wondering what's happening...
I was confused trying to come back to this post to look at the new comments too 😂
It's a locked topic. There's a new mod in that community that has a greeting post explaining that several posts in there were off-topic, but had been uovoted, so instead of deleting, they are being locked
Edit: https://lemmy.world/post/163272 the mod post I mentioned above (and fixed typos)
Ahh I see, maybe I'll come across that post at some point, thanks for explaining!
You're welcome! Linked in my comment (had to find it and edit), so if you refresh, you can read that post.
Edit: keep submitting too soon...
Ooh thanks for linking! Have just read the post
Looks like maybe comments are lock on it? It looks a lot like the comment button
I thought that but like 5 posts in a row had them and I was unsure if that many posts would've been locked since they weren't controversial posts
Edit I think that is what it is though, I tried posting in one and a little toast came up saying 'locked'
It means the thread is locked (the web UI has a padlock, which conveys the idea better IMO)
I think it means comments are locked, is there a mod comment in there saying as much?
I'm aware some communities are encouraging reddit news updates to go into a megathread, so other posts and content can rise up
Its lemmy.ml slow federation. You will get the content but it will say "pending" forever
