YouTube comments are public and anyone can reply to a comment that you post. If you can't find a comment after you get a notification, it's possible that the comment has already been removed. Comments can be removed by the original poster, the channel owner, or for policy violations.
You should delete negative comments on YouTube when they are not constructive. Constructive comments that critique your videos and offer feedback should stay. Comments that are meant to be malicious should be removed.
Your comments can disappear for several reasons. They could be removed for policy violations, filtered by your settings or detected as spam. You can find more on comment settings here: support.google.com/youtube/answer…. Reach back out if needed.

We also filter comments which we have high confidence are spam into a 'Likely spam' folder that creators can review and approve if they choose. See the Community Guidelines for details about what is not allowed.

If the comment is modified briefly after being posted, the notification will include the updated text when its read, but there will be no extra notifications other than the original occuring after the comment was posted in the first place.
