Missleading comments

I had found several comments on the quizzes of the lessons that although they have higher up votes contain wrong or missleading information. For example on lesson in Python about operators precedence somebody saiz that AND operator has precedence over the OR operator. There are comments correcting this but you have to search for them and have far less up votes. Shouldn't there be a way to report/correct this kind of comments?

Yes it's possible to report the comment in-app. Just tap on the tree-dot menu next to it and select the appropriate type of the report will do. 😉

It's one of the comments in the lesson with the table image? Do you perhaps remember which one?

Apparently the table shows certain groups of operators which have a precedence over other groups. It does not explain enough the precedence within the group.

Sololearn is unsupervised community, and majority could be wrong. You should report bugs or misleading things. but I am confused what is you concern on precedence of OR and AND. AND is "stronger" than OR, that is well explained in the second comment (in the lesson with a table). e.g. (1 or 0 and 0) will be 1, that is (0 and 0) calculated first.

The comments I was referring to are in the Python course, Control Structures module, Operator Precedence section, under the second question. I don't see a specific report for this case. Should I use the generic (last) one in case I found things like this to report? Based on the table from the lesson before the question those operators (AND and OR) seem to have the same priority. This is the case in other languages I've learned so wasn't expecting a different situation on Python. But because of yuri's reply (thank you yuri) I've looked again and seems not the comments are wrong but that the table in the lesson is missleading (at least for me). So will not report those comment but will try to find a way to report the lesson. Thank you for all your replies.
