This will happen with posts, too, not just comments. Thanks for any help. I love the app and know not everything will work flawlessly immediately, but I’m curious to know what’s going on as it is quite frequent for me

    It’s a placeholder for a graphic or emoji. If somebody uses a symbol or an emoji and your device doesn’t have it or support it, it gets replaced by that symbol, it shouldn’t have to do with the app.

      But in this case someone put their cats’ pictures in the comment, so it’s definitely not an emoji. Thanks for taking the time to answer, though :)
