When someone comments on my profile and I get a notification, but then my profile just starts loading forever so I have to wait a few hours to be able to reply to it…reload the page a few times

I've checked all the posts on this topic.
Since the ghost message only occurs on 2.0 pages, I suspect the problem lies with "https://scratch.mit.edu/messages/ajax/get-message-count/." However, analyzing the API when the ghost message occurs didn't reveal anything…

Anyone experiencing this?

It's been like this for years (EDIT: As in having ghost messages). The servers just take some time to catch up.
The 0 messages bubble is a different story. This is the first I've seen reports of it.

My browser / operating system: Windows NT 10.0, Chrome 131.0.0.0, No Flash version detectedYeah, if it's in a Scratch 3.0 page the message takes some time to dissapear, but I've also had a situation where on a random 2.0 page like My Stuff, I'd just get 4 messages and when I clicked there was nothing.

If you are having this bug, please discuss about it here, no making a new topic about it.
Also, just remember that, I'm fairly certain when you get muted, and go to a 2.0 page, it says 1 message but there are actually none.

…I guess I should consider having a message that literally says 0 a ghost message
A scratcher: *logs in to their account*
Scratch servers:
(yamete kudasai) SEND HIM A MESSAGE NOTIFICATION BUT NOT AN ACTUAL MESSAGE
The scratcher that logged in to their account a few picoseconds ago: *recieves message notification*
