I havent been the one looking at the database but im assuming itll be a similar way to how the person table was fixed. Theres essentially duplicate entries for certain communities atm
so just dropping duplicates then?
are there no references to the duplicates from posts? if there are and the duplicate rows are just deleted it'll cascade deletion and purge all those posts from the db as well
there are references which is why its a pain to fix and isnt just dropping duplicates
