Comments on my TikTok disappearing?

Recently a TikTok of mine blew up and I ended up getting 900+ comments. On the first/second day I was still able to reveal the “folded” comments at the end, but for the past few days they’ve totally disappeared and I can’t find them at all.

Ive gone to my settings and comments and already checked the reviewed comments, along with changing some comment settings and that hasn’t changed anything.

I tried logging in to different devices and even seeing the comments from my partners account and it seems they’ve disappeared everywhere, but the comment section still stays they’re there as they’ve never declined in number only increased.

I’m really hoping to figure out where the comments went as it was an art competition and one of the winners were in the folded comments section, otherwise I can’t find their account at all. Would appreciate any advice 🙏
