I’ve found that if done one deletes their comment than everything below it disappears.
Yup it appears that our entire comment chain got nuked. So it is now confirmed that if you delete the parent, then all children get removed as well.
For any reading this message, the context is that we tested it by me replying to OP's previous comment, then OP responding to me, then I deleted my comment to see if their comment also got deleted.
From my testing it only removes them, but you should be able to go into them again by clicking on the reply in your inbox.
Test
I have deleted the previous message
I can see it.
Deletion not federated yet, then.
Let me rephrase, I can see the comment was deleted but I can still see everything after.
