I tried looking at the post you linked on the Lemmy.world instance however I used an app. I was able to see each individual post. What this tells me is this is a purely frontend issue as the back end is capable of serving the entire comment section.
See the screenshot below (taken while in the Lemmy.world instance)

Thank you for checking. That is weird. Your screen shot is exactly what I would expect / like to see when a user is blocked and has their comments removed. Neither voyager nor the web interface for world shows that. What app are you using?

Hmm I just checked the lemmy.world website and I can see the entire comment chain there as well. Link: https://lemmy.world/post/24942544

You know you can host your own instance, with your rules, and every like-minded individual can join you (either locally or exchanging federated content with your instance).
That is what I did, btw, not because of “moderation” related issues, but because I don’t want to freeload on someone’s resources.
To be honest I don’t get what your problem is. This is not criticism; I just have no idea.

Yes, i know i can host my own instance. But I don’t think that should be necessary. My ‘problem’ is that a single post is looking different on each of the instances I signed up to, and the community in question is not on any of those instances. That is confusing me. I get that any instance can block other instances, or specific communities on other instances, and that’s a good thing. But selective federation at the level of posts or comments is an extra complication in the user experience i wasn’t aware of.
