Hello,

it looks like some users or instances don't allow commenting their pictures. For an end-user it's unclear whether the button is not visible because the feature to comment something is non-existing in Pixelfed or if it's because the loading of the page failed partially somehow or whether it's because someone disabled it on purpose. So I would suggest to show the comment button but in a disabled state and some text like 'Comments (disabled)' or something like that to visualize that this activity is disabled on purpose and not desired for the instance/account. Plus some ALT-tag for the button.

Best Regards,
