Whenever you are typing a comment on a post, there's a live-updating character count that shows how many of the allowed 500 characters you have used so far. However, when you *post* the comment, the indicator doesn't reset. So if I write a comment "Hello world!", the character count quite correctly indicates that I have used 12 out of 500 characters. When I click *Post* to actually post the comment, then the comment shows up as such; the comment text field is cleared; but the character count *still* indicates 12/500. At a minimum, the character count should be reset when the comment is posted, to match the UI state when one is just starting a new comment.
